Abstract:
The Healthcare sector, like all other sectors of our society, is strongly impacted by digital transformations and must tackle huge problems (especially of costs), hoping digital devices help to solve them. We propose to consider it through new uses of Interactive Devices in the scope of Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions for the improvement of Human Computer Interactions, principally through Telemedicine Platforms in France. First of all, we define our scientific position and the methodology used. Secondly, we present the use of data in telemedicine with data processing and some cases analysis of AI applications in telemedicine. We then analyze the effects of the combination of the two technologies. Furthermore, we consider the impacts of the Covid pandemic with new types of remote interactions, especially for the elderly. We discuss the main challenges of this digital transformation with the risk of a "solutionist" and "technocentric" approach, sometimes forgetting that health is above all based on a human dimension and human interactions. We also outline the question of territories and the integration of telemedicine in the healthcare system. Finally, we give a conclusion focusing on the main challenges undertaken as well as providing some perspectives, integrating lessons of the Covid pandemic. More globally we outline the importance of the digital transformation of the French Healthcare System with new types of human computer interactions both for the resilience of the healthcare organizations, improving care and cure with territorial dimensions, with the new challenges of the Covid pandemic.
