AI
for Healthcare
Economic Times ( June 17 – 23 / 2018 ) carries an
article titled :
This article is discussing the implications of the discussion paper brought out by NITI Aayog , titled :
AS per that paper , the strategy should focus on
following sectors :
* Education
* Agriculture
* Healthcare
AI driven diagnostics in remote areas, personalized treatment , early identification of
pandemics
* Smart Cities
* Smart
Mobility
In an interview , Shri Amitabh Kant [ CEO – NITI Aayog
] said :
“ NITI is
already working on proofs of concept in healthcare and agriculture …… For
this , the task force will make proper roadmaps on implementation of each pilot
project . The task force will ultimately be responsible for execution “
The discussion paper notes :
In addition, the government aims at leveraging
technology to improve healthcare facilities through the:
a)
the National eHealth Authority (NeHA) which
will strategize eHealth adoption, define
standards and a framework for the health sector, put in place electronic health exchanges for interoperability
b)
the Integrated Health Information Program (IHIP) to provide EHR to
all citizens of India and provide interoperability
to existing EHR/EMRs,
c) the
Electronic Health Record Standards for India
QUESTION :
How to go about collecting / compiling into a CENTRAL
DATABASE , health records of
millions of sick Indians , using Electronic Health
Record Standards ?
ANSWER :
Here is what I blogged in Jan 2018. I urge the Task
Force on Healthcare to consider :
2024
! – V 2.0 of Orwellian 1984 ?

There are 7,000 million people on the
earth
It is possible that , at any given time , some 7 million of these are lying in ICU , connected with :
* Electroencephalogram ( Brain Monitor )
* Electrocardiogram ( Heart Monitor )
* Pulse Rate Meter
* Oxygen Level Meter
* Glucose Level Meter........etc
It is possible that , at any given time , some 7 million of these are lying in ICU , connected with :
* Electroencephalogram ( Brain Monitor )
* Electrocardiogram ( Heart Monitor )
* Pulse Rate Meter
* Oxygen Level Meter
* Glucose Level Meter........etc
As soon as these instruments get embedded with Internet of Things ( IoT ), a central server could collect all of these " measurements / readings " on 24*7 basis , for all 7 million persons
Then it will combine these readings with following data about each of those 7 million persons :
* Country / Region / City / Language
* Race / Religion / Gender / Age
* Height / Weight / Colour / Biometrics
* Blood Group / DNA / Past Medical History.....etc
It will also record , who died / when !
Using such massive data base, can BIG DATA / Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning , figure out what " Customized healthcare / Medical treatment / Supplementary diet " should be " prescribed " for each human on this earth ?
Shall we support such " Invasion of Individual Privacy " , in the larger interest / benefit of entire mankind ?
I think , we should
