Technology can help SUS save lives

Abstract

New health technologies have advanced a lot and are also available on the public network. But only in large centers. The outskirts of metropolises are still far from medical care agile, almost as distant as the populations of most remote corners of the Amazon. Innovation can
change this reality. It has been almost five years since the Organization of United Nations (UN) launched
its Global Strategy for Digital Health – a challenge for national effortsfrom all over the world, exchange
of knowledge, innovation, between research centers, companies and organizations non-governmental – in order
to promote health for everyone, in all geographies. The UN proposal unified, under the term Digital Health,
all concepts technologies available in e-health, telemedicine, telehealth and mobile health, defining a new area of knowledge and practice that incorporates advances in technology, new concepts, social media applications, internet of things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI).
