This edited book focuses on the role and use of emerging technologies within the healthcare sector. This text draws on expertise from leading practitioners and researchers who either utilize and/or are at the forefront of researching with emerging technology in anticipation of enhancing patient outcomes.

Emerging Technologies in Healthcare: Interpersonal and Client-Based Perspectives focuses on the role of emerging technologies in society and how it may enhance medical treatment, management, and rehabilitation of service users. It offers expert perspectives on topics covering emerging technological advances and how they are being incorporated into healthcare, but also critically appraises forthcoming implementation. The editors draw from recent publications and the growing narrative surrounding technological advances, notably telerehabilitation, virtual reality, augmentation, and mHealth. Subsequent chapters focus on these, coupled with other emerging technologies, providing detailed insight into how these can either enhance and/or hinder patient/service user outcomes. Each chapter explores the multifaceted use and application of each emerging technology, that impacts on diagnosis, treatment, and (self-) management of individuals. For example, can emerging technology really facilitate patient diagnosis, improve, or remove practitioner–patient interactions, provide sound rehabilitation, and treat/monitor mental health conditions?

This edited volume encompasses an array of emerging technologies that will remain pertinent to caregivers, families, practitioners, service users and policymakers. This is not a text on emerging technology alone but on its societal implications, accompanied by ethical, altruistic, and moral examples for such advances within the healthcare field. It is targeted that this text will enhance and offer original discussions surrounding the interconnectivity of technology and medicine, rehabilitation, and patient care.
