The purpose of this research is to identify and evaluate the technical, ethical and regulatory challenges related to the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare. The potential applications of AI in healthcare seem limitless and vary in their nature and scope, ranging from privacy, research, informed consent, patient autonomy, accountability, health equity, fairness, AI-based diagnostic algorithms to care management through automation for specific manual activities to reduce paperwork and human error. The main challenges faced by states in regulating the use of AI in healthcare were identified, especially the legal voids and complexities for adequate regulation and better transparency. A few recommendations were made to protect health data, mitigate risks and regulate more efficiently the use of AI in healthcare through international cooperation and the adoption of harmonized standards under the World Health Organization (WHO) in line with its constitutional mandate to regulate digital and public health. European Union (EU) law can serve as a model and guidance for the WHO for a reform of the International Health Regulations (IHR).

In the current automotive ecosystem, the trend of pairing mobile devices to connected vehicles is gaining momentum, providing a vast number of benefits such as hands-free driving and remote vehicle control. However, along with these conveniences arises the issue of data accumulation, ranging from vehicle diagnostics to personal identifiable information (PII). The problem emerges when a consumer rents a vehicle, pairs their mobile device to the infotainment system, and neglects to remove their device prior to returning the vehicle. This oversight can potentially expose vulnerabilities with the current renter’s PII for subsequent renters to exploit. Research indicates that renters often overlook the deletion process prior to returning the rental vehicle and are unaware of whose responsibility it is to perform this task. In this survey, we investigated the experiences and perceptions of a group of consumers who have previously rented vehicles. We wanted to know if the participants were aware they were responsible for deleting their mobile device from the rental vehicle before returning it, the renters’ importance and tolerance for risk if they overlooked the deletion process leaving their shared data on the infotainment system for subsequent users, and if they were aware who was responsible for deleting their shared data. Lastly, we explored if the participants supported an automated solution to perform this manual deletion process. The goal of this paper is to demonstrate the significance of safeguarding PII in connected vehicles and advocate for the adoption of an automated solution to mitigate this privacy risk.

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Wearable biosensors are a fast-evolving topic at the intersection of healthcare, technology, and personalized medicine. These sensors, which are frequently integrated into clothes and accessories or directly applied to the skin, provide continuous, real-time monitoring of physiological and biochemical parameters such as heart rate, glucose levels, and hydration status. Recent breakthroughs in downsizing, materials science, and wireless communication have greatly improved the functionality, comfort, and accessibility of wearable biosensors. This review examines the present status of wearable biosensor technology, with an emphasis on advances in sensor design, fabrication techniques, and data analysis algorithms. We analyze diverse applications in clinical diagnostics, chronic illness management, and fitness tracking, emphasizing their capacity to transform health monitoring and facilitate early disease diagnosis. Additionally, this review seeks to shed light on the future of wearable biosensors in healthcare and wellness by summarizing existing trends and new advancements.
