Impact of technology on Health professional education.

We are now working in an era where we are dealing with plugged in society. Technology has became a very important component of learning and teaching. Refusing to move with the trend may cause us the engagement with students.

However technology is double edged sword and it needs careful handling to maximize its benefit and minimize its damage.

Ai and chatbots have now taking over lecture delivery in the form of Avatars. Though this facilitates asynchronous and self regulated studying, in line with the adult learners requirement, not adequately preparing students for this experience can confuse the learners. Hence the educators need to understand and balance out the applications.

Using digital interactive planform like Ka hoot, mentimeter and moodles have the high ability to engage the native digitalities but also poses un looked into long term effect on screen time and digital cognitive overload. Not to mention the dependency that it can create both to the instructor and the learner. Hence care has to be taken to reinforce the necessary precautions and habits like 20 min eye rest time and alternate non digital interventions to overcome this.

Extended reality technology now is able to bring in real time into the classroom and seem to cultivate curiosity. However car must be taken to make sure that it does not impart a gaming sense of experience. A proper feedback and humanistic group discussion will enhance the learning.

Assessment can benefit from OMR and real time feedback from AI assisted systems. However there lacks enough evidence to support sole dependency on these with AI induced bias and errors being more and more eminent.

Big data analytics are very helpful in research and innovation but again biases need to be analyzed manually and human factor still plays a huge role in feeding and accessing these data.

Therefore as much as technology is important in teaching nd learning for HPEs, the ability to operate and handle them as a human factor plays a more vital role.

Impact of technology on health professions education and health care system

Technolohy has transformed HPE and health care industry significantly by creating more dynamic, effective, and accessible learning environments and providing patient outcomes.

Impact on HPE: It enhance learning via immersive tools like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), students can engage in interactive, 3D learning experiences that deepen their understanding of complex subjects such as human anatomy and medical procedures. Skill development has been greatly enhanced by high-fidelity simulators, which provide a risk-free space for students to practice techniques and manage emergencies. These realistic simulations build competence and confidence. In addition, online platforms increase accessibility, allowing flexible, remote education. Adaptive software personalizes learning to individual needs and promote their performance. By integrating real-world tools into training, technology ensures graduates are practice-ready, creating a more efficient and effective educational pathway.

Impact on Health Care System: Advancements in technology are transforming healthcare, leading to profound improvements in both the delivery of care and patient outcomes. Telemedicine and virtual care are transforming the way patients interact with healthcare providers by enabling remote consultations, which not only improve accessibility for those in rural or underserved areas but also strengthen patient engagement through continuous follow-up. At the same time, big data and advanced analytics are being used to predict health risks, personalize treatment plans, and streamline clinical decision-making, ultimately leading to more efficient healthcare delivery and better patient outcomes. Morever, AI is now helping the clinicians, detect diseases much earlier. By analyzing medical images and patient data, AI can spot tiny signs of illness,, example like in early-stage cancer that humans might miss. This allows for treatment to begin immediately, often making the disease easier to manage or even cure. Thus, technology is becoming a powerful tool in preventing serious health outcomes.

Assalamualaikum Miss Siti. Here are my points of view regarding the impact of technology on health professions education (HPE) and the healthcare system, based on the reviewed journals.

• Big Data and Analytics: Big data benefits both HPE and healthcare systems. In HPE, it allows educators to tailor curricula based on students' needs. For instance, students enrolling in the Cardiovascular Technology Certificate Program at IJN College come from various backgrounds and have different levels of psychomotor skills. Big data can help develop curricula that meet these diverse needs. In healthcare, big data enhances disease monitoring and treatment, leading to better patient outcomes. For example, at IJN, machine learning is used to predict which patients are likely to miss their appointments, preventing slot wastage and ensuring smoother patient flow. One strategy to address this issue is by contacting the predicted group of patients to confirm their attendance.

• E-Learning in Medical Education: E-learning is particularly beneficial in low- and middle-income countries, especially online learning. For example, MSU has implemented a blended learning approach for students pursuing a bachelor's degree in cardiovascular technology. Theoretical training is delivered online, while practical skills are developed through in-person instruction. This approach is specifically designed for healthcare professionals. The advantage is that students can attend classes online, but the disadvantage is that they may not acquire sufficient psychomotor skills due to limited time and infrastructure.

• Internet of Things (IoT): IoT devices, such as ambulatory devices and sensors, enable continuous patient monitoring, helping physicians track patients' health and provide timely and effective treatment. For example, at IJN, patients with heart rhythm problems are advised to wear an implantable loop recorder, which is connected to an app. If the device detects a malignant rhythm, it sends a notification to the respective doctor, allowing for quicker treatment and management. However, the issue is that this device is costly, making it inaccessible to patients with financial constraints.

• Artificial Intelligence (AI): AI tools are improving both education and healthcare. In echocardiography, for example, AI has not yet been implemented in providing diagnoses based on obtained parameters. In the future, integrating AI tools could help generate reports more efficiently and improve patient management.

Good morning Ms Siti, this is my humble opinion on the challenges in providing access to healthcare, strategies educator need to adopt to transform HPE, and benefits of EHR. Thank you.
