Abstract
Technological advancements have revolutionized the detection and treatment of infectious diseases, offering innovative solutions to enhance diagnosis, surveillance, and therapeutic interventions. This abstract explores recent developments in technology-driven approaches to combat infectious diseases, focusing on key areas such as molecular diagnostics, point-of-care testing, digital health solutions, and precision medicine. Molecular diagnostic techniques, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR), next-generation sequencing (NGS), and nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs), enable rapid and accurate identification of pathogens, facilitating targeted treatment and containment strategies. Point-of-care testing (POCT) devices provide real-time diagnostic results at the patient's bedside or in resource-limited settings, improving access to timely care and reducing transmission risks. Digital health solutions leverage mobile applications, wearable devices, and telemedicine platforms to enhance disease surveillance, monitoring, and patient engagement, empowering individuals to manage their health proactively. Additionally, advances in precision medicine, such as pharmacogenomics and personalized therapies, optimize treatment outcomes by tailoring interventions to individual genetic profiles and immune responses. Collectively, these technological innovations hold promise for strengthening global efforts to combat infectious diseases, enabling early detection, prompt intervention, and targeted treatment strategies to mitigate the impact of infectious disease outbreaks on public health.
