Abstract
Digital therapeutics (DTx) is a recently conceived idea in health care that aims to cure ailments and modify patient behavior by employing a range of digital technologies. Notably, when traditional medication is not entirely efficacious, DTx offers an innovative avenue for treatments linked to dysfunctional behaviors and lifestyle management. DTx involves extremely adaptable therapeutic devices that empower greater patient engagement in treating illness, using algorithms to collect, transfer and analyze the patient’s data. Efficient clinical monitoring and supervision at the individual level by remote access and algorithms for a range of diseases is made possible by integrating machine learning and artificial intelligence with DTx. There is a potentially large worldwide market for DTx owing to its convenient, personalized therapies.
