2. Introduction
 Health care industry
• Cloud computing
• 4G technology
• Sensors

3. Cloud Computing, 4G, And Sensors In
Healthcare
In this presentation, I would be highlighting the usefulness of cloud
computing, tablets, and 4G, in the healthcare industry, and the way
they have transformed the industry in recent times.

4. What is Cloud Computing?
 Cloud computing is now among the most trending technologies. It is the
form of computing that relies greatly on sharing computing resources,
without the need for local servers or devices for handling applications.

5. Cloud Computing's Benefiting
Healthcare
 Though several industries have benefited greatly by incorporating cloud-based
technologies, the one that has been experiencing the most
benefits, recently, is the healthcare industry

6. Healthcare Before Cloud Computing
 Healthcare has been lagging behind in adopting technology, right till
recently. Healthcare organizations have been dependent on workflows
that comprise paper medical records, film-based radiological images,
fragmented IT systems, and handwritten notes

7. What Cloud Computing Can Do
 To combat these inefficiencies in workflow, cloud computing
technologies may be utilized for healthcare applications such as HIS,
EMRs, and PACS, to make them more affordable and accessible.

8. Choice Of Organization
 I have chosen Canberra Hospital, as the organization in which I would
implement cloud-based technologies.

9. Judging The Effectiveness Of Cloud
Computing
 When it comes to judging the effectiveness of a technology, the return
on investment plays a vital role i.e. it is important for an organization to
experience monetary returns, when they invest in a new technology

10. Cloud Computing For Customer
Satisfaction In Healthcare
 Cloud computing technologies are geared towards providing business
agility. Cloud computing would also offer tremendous benefits for the
customers, which in this case, are patients, and one of these benefits
include security.

11. Overall Benefit For Canberra Hospital
 The cloud would provide Canberra hospital with fast access to any
patient’s medical history, which would accelerate the treatment plan,
prevent complications, and save lives (Osterhaus 2010)

12. Cloud Computing Might Be Expensive
For Canberra Hospital
 While cloud computing does have the ability to reduce the costs borne
by Canberra Hospital, it is important to note that in certain cases, this
may not be applicable. Implementation of the cloud might result in a
greater expenditure, for Canberra hospital (Gray Kubie Garzone and
Rhoads 2013).

13. Factors That Determine Canberra
Hospital's Expenditure
 The amount of money saved by Canberra hospital would be
dependent on several factors. The first factor that would affect
the hospital’s budget, is the current level of virtualization of their
environment. It would also be determined by the resources being
utilized by current applications. A common scenario would be
that of some applications running at 30 percent of their capacity,
while others are at 50 percent. Therefore, with the deployment of
a cloud-based architecture, these applications would distribute
the resources among themselves, resulting in extensive utilization
of resources.(Gray Kubie Garzone and Rhoads 2013).

14. Future Of Cloud Computing In
Healthcare
 Looking at the present adoption rate of cloud computing technologies,
it is very likely that cloud computing would continue to be used by the
healthcare industry in the future. Research firm Markets and Markets
reveal that the cloud computing market in the healthcare industry
would grow to a staggering $5.4 million by the year 2017, with the major
reasons being improved storage and computing power offered by the
cloud (InfoWorld 2013).

15. Impact of 4G technology on
health care.
• There is great impact of 4G on health care
• In the consumer world, this significant upgrade in wireless broadband
means faster wireless web surfing/downloads and high-quality wireless
videoconferencing.
• 4G has a potential to exchange health care experience for patients,
care givers etc.
• With 4G these data intensive communications can be conducted
wirelessly making the equipment easy to install and convenient for
patient for use

16. Next generation tele health
• 4G tele health solutions also help remove location barriers from the
healthcare equation. With videoconferencing, a patient in a rural area
with 4G coverage can receive a consultation from a world-renowned
specialist in an urban location without ever leaving their neighbourhood
or home.

17. • Once the mobile records are digital they become more
mobile and can be shared easily with more physicians
and hospitals.
 Tele health solutions have a great impact on patient
care and can reduce costs out of health care system.

18. • 4G helps in reducing the number of hospital admissions
and office visits which are riddle with expense.
• Customer convenience: The customer convenience is to
greater extent. The customer can share his medical
records to doctors from home.

19. Sharing medical information
with help of 4G

Healthcare Technology Outlook 2020 - Technology uptake

20. Sensors:-Technology
• In the next 2-5 years, sensors will monitor the effect of
Diabetes, Heart failure, Asthma, Sleep disorders
• Smart sensors-these will continuously monitor a value or
signal and initiate a therapeutic response.

21. Sensors:-WBAN
 Wireless sensor devices has the capability to monitor
physiological parameters from patient bodies by
different communications.
 wireless body sensor project,MICS (medical impact
communication service), WMTS (wireless medical
telemetry systems) and UWB band are used between
CCU and sensor nodes. Wlans, Zigbee, 433 mhz ISM are
the devices we use.

22. Wireless Sensors:-
ZigBEE:- this is a suite for high level communication protocols
using small digital radio based on an IEEE 802 personal area
netwrok.
Smart dust:-Smart dust is a concept of wireless sensor
network made up of micro electrical sensors that has self
conatined sensing and computation.

23. Wireless:-Ultra wideband
based-
 UWban nodes are used for Low data rate ultra
wideband wireless transmission for wireless body area
network.
 this is a pulse based transmission system whose
spectrum is spread across wide range of frequencies,
which is less likely to affect on human tissues. For
example:-ECG report

24. Smart Sensors:-
 Smart Sensors:-
 These will monitor closed loop insulin pumps.
 heart monitor to activate drug release in CHF
 Cardiac pacemaker to regulate heart using the real
time pressure and oxygen saturation readings from
multiple areas in the body.

25. Smart Sensors:-
 Biometric monitoring:-
 Continous measurement of biometric indicators with
implanatable devices.
 Portable bed unit integrated sensors capable of ICU
monitoring functions.
 point of care testing-analytical testing
 environmental monitoring for screening, biosensors will
identify pathogens

26. Hospitals can Determine their
Return on investment:-
 Determining priorities:-before knowing certain
technology yielding a good result,executives must drill
down about its contribution towards the success.
 Benchmark:-most effective and frequently used way to
look at the ROI. It compares the current performance to
the historical metrics.
 Work flow improvement:-A new technology had a great
influence on ROI if it its able to eliminate some steps and
save time.
 Business growth:- this depends upon the costs of a
technology and if the employees observe the benefits of
a technology,then that has to be considered as a
positive ROI

27. Advantages and customer
convenience:-
 Continous monitoring will be achieved and right treatment at the
required time which was the crucial thing for any customer.
 Easy to use and reduce the work load,which will adversly
increase the competetive advantage.
 It is a very fast process and meet the needs of the industry
Disadvantages:-
 Initial cost is high
 Periodic maintainence is required.
