In the Future
Currently, the main uses of electronic medical devices are in research, collecting public health data, maintaining and accessing patient records, and patient care. But the use of semiconductors in these devices is expanding as devices move toward monitoring, diagnosis, or treatment through surgery or other treatments, such as drug delivery and nerve stimulation in neurotechnology. Monitoring systems also include implantable clinical devices used in patients' homes to transmit data back to doctors, or to obtain monitoring services about vital signs systems from sensors on the patient's body.
