Wearables provide real-time information about some of the most important health parameters like heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and blood glucose levels. The use of handheld devices (smartphones, tablets) to perform echocardiography or point-ofcare-ultrasound have revolutionized the way physicians approach patients. One of the greatest impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic has been digitalization of health, including but not limited to the penetration of telemedicine or telehealth. Although we previously had digital tools, the pandemic has forced us to augment its use to organize, train, mobilize, and deploy scattered healthcare human resources. Healthcare institutions can now more effectively distribute limited resources among competing demands thanks to technology. In this new section we will be bringing the latest technological innovations in global health along with insights, expert opinions, and commentaries to our viewers. We hope you will enjoy this section. We look forward to hearing your suggestions and constructive feedback on drswapnilparve@gmail.com. In the previous issue we highlighted the World Health Organization’s (WHO) study results on new technologies and trends relevant to global public health.

A number of ground-breaking technologies<br />
have emerged in the twenty-first century<br />
that have changed the way we monitor<br />
our health. Wearables provide real-time<br />
information about some of the most<br />
important health parameters like heart rate,<br />
blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and<br />
blood glucose levels. The use of handheld<br />
devices (smartphones, tablets) to perform echocardiography or point-ofcare-ultrasound<br />
have revolutionized the way physicians approach patients.<br />
One of the greatest impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic has been<br />
digitalization of health, including but not limited to the penetration of<br />
telemedicine or telehealth. Although we previously had digital tools, the<br />
pandemic has forced us to augment its use to organize, train, mobilize, and<br />
deploy scattered healthcare human resources. Healthcare institutions can<br />
now more effectively distribute limited resources among competing demands<br />
thanks to technology.<br />
In this new section we will be bringing the latest technological innovations in<br />
global health along with insights, expert opinions, and commentaries to our<br />
