Personally, I felt both elated and surprised by the technological advancement of today, after reading the article as the researchers have found new hopes for cancer, diabetes and more, which could help prolong the life and to improve the living conditions of the people.
Today, the heart disease has become the top killer in most countries. Fortunately, medical researches have successfully invented devices to help the people who suffered from heart diseases and problems.One of the device is called CPR-Glove which helps to compress the chest and give breaths while the other device called the Chronicle IHM (Implantable Hemodynamic Monitor), helps the patient by sending messages wirelessly via the Internet to the doctor for emergency help.These inventions would definitely benefit the patients and special care and attention would be given to them by using these devices. With no doubt, I think that this piece of good news would bring both joy and relieved to both the patient and his loved ones as many are desperate and tried means to help minimise the sufferings caused and their efforts had finally paid off.
Moreover, due to the technological advancement of today, researchers have also found out methods to reduce the pain when doing a blood test. In addition, they also manage to find ways to reduce the chances of disfigurements after the surgery. It uses the Magnetic Anchoring and Guidance System which requires the magnets to attract and guide the other magnets attached to tiny surgical tools to perform the surgery. They have also managed to invent methods to detect various types of cancer earlier such as the ovarian cancer, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis and depression etc.
On the other hand, I think that these discoveries would definitely bring the medical treatment to a grater height, as a result, more lives would be saved. To further add on, a simple procedure such as a concise list is adopted as a form of guideline to reduce the chances of the doctor's negligence and led to dire consequences. In my opinion, I felt that this measure is absolutely necessary as one would definitely make careless mistakes at times if they are not paying extra care and attention. On the other hand, this measure would give the patient and their loved ones a peace of mind when the patient is about have an operation.
However, after reading the article, I realised that in the modern society of today, we seemed to have done many things to change the flow of the course of nature. In other words, we have modified the natural environment of ours into a human environment to a large extent due to today's technological advancement. Take our human body for example, a new device such as an artificial lung is used to work with the heart's pumping action to manage oxygen and blood flow throughout the body. This type of method which requires an artificial instrument, seemed to be modifying the human beings into a "man-made" one or even changing them into a robot. I felt that our world would be dominated by robots some day. Perhaps, the world dominated by robots would speed up with the help of the technology of today. I think that it will be quite a frightening or an unpleasant experience living with robots instead of people.
In conclusion, this article has highlighted the importance of taking care of our health and body. We must not take things for granted and must adopt a healthy lifestyle in order to stay away from illnesses and diseases. Hence, cultivate a good eating habit and exercise regularly is essential for life. "An apple a day keeps a doctor away", so start adopting a healthy lifestyle!
