Marc Saab CMBEC45 Presentation Brief:
Innovative Medical Technologies and the Challenges they Pose
Date and Time: May 17, 1:40 PM – 3:00 PM
While the demand for emerging technology in healthcare applications continues to grow at an exponential rate, the supply seems to be stalled by familiar factors. The requirements to ensure patient safety and to show compelling clinical validation have always been imposed by regulatory agencies like Health Canada and the FDA. When new technology is introduced into the clinical environment, and even directly into the hands of the patients at times, issues around inter-operability, usability, data integrity, cybersecurity, and data privacy arise.
The amazing possibilities offered by medical wearables, artificial intelligence, and remote patient monitoring applications are exciting. This presentation will address some of the considerations for tech companies and clinical organizations alike to overcome new challenges, such that real-world medical applications based on these exciting new technologies can be integrated into existing clinical frameworks and used reliably.
We’re looking forward to Marc’s participation at CMBEC45 and to deepening the conversation on the topics of discussion. We all understand the potential of emerging medical technology to revolutionize the delivery of healthcare in this country, and the world. But we also understand that this process will be accompanied with a number of challenges that we will need to overcome if we are to fulfill the promise of these emerging technologies.
We’re hoping to meet many Vancouver digital health ecosystem participants at the conference and will provide updates to CMBEC45 after the event. See you there!
