Abstract

Digital Technologies such as the Internet of Things (IOT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics and Big Data Analytics are disrupting and transforming traditional roles and practices across all professions. The so-called “democratisation” or “consumerisation” of digital technologies is empowering ordinary citizens with the tools and access to knowledge that previously was the domain of professionals with years of experience. Nowhere is this core true than in the field of medicine where advances in these technologies mean that machines can diagnosis patients more accurately than human beings and robots are increasingly being used in surgical practices. This presentation looks at the implications of these technologies for nursing and people involved in the caring profession
