therapy, transport medications and supplies within the hospital, and assist patients by monitoring vital signs. Although currently costly and not accessible to all populations, robots can enhance the efficiency and quality of healthcare. However, it is crucial to use them ethically to avoid the dehumanisation of medical care. Nanotechnology: This technology has
the potential to revolutionise medicine by interacting with the body at molecular and cellular levels. Nanomedicine offers alternatives for monitoring, control, construction, repair, and enhancement of human biological systems. It enables the creation of highly sensitive biosensors for early disease detection and controlled drug delivery, improving treatment efficacy and safety. Nanotechnology is also used in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases through genetic and protein therapies.
Conclusions Technology in the hospital setting significantly improves patient care and optimises time management, while transforming healthcare building planning and construction. It has replaced manual processes with more effective approaches, curing and preventing
In the realm of surgery, there is a growing trend towards using remote-assistance equipment
diseases. However, it is crucial that its adoption is not solely driven by commercial benefits but responds to real needs and enhances the quality of care. Artificial intelligence will play a crucial
role in healthcare, impacting both patient care processes and architectural documentation for future constructions. Many jobs are likely to be replaced by technology, leading to economic and time savings. Therefore, it is essential for new generations and the current workforce to be trained with advanced technological foundations to efficiently integrate into the job market, both in medical and construction fields. Technology has enabled the
development of new treatments and
cures, positively impacting life expectancy. However, it raises ethical and political issues, particularly concerning human rights and public policies. It is crucial to ensure equitable access to new treatments and technologies, protect the privacy of medical information, and address inequalities in healthcare. Political leaders and decision-makers must engage in creating public policies that address these issues and promote fair and equitable healthcare for all.
