We take it every year to prevent serious flu related complications, like pneumonia. Another example of a vaccine, meningococcal injection that prevents bacterial meningitis in both children and young adults. Befroe the development of this medicine, bacterial meningitis presented physicians with many problems. In severe cases, bacterial meningitis has cause death due to rapid progression of symptoms.




Machines technology also helps in the medical field. A well known machine is the automated external defibrillator (AED). This is one of the most important machines because it assist us in regulating cardiac arrest. Without it, irreversible brain damage can occur in minutes, eventually leading to death. AEDs have become standard medical equipment in many public facilities.


Surgery, technology is most important when performing surgery. Without out we couldn't repair the bodies properly and we would have to let them suffer. Arthroscopic surgery utilizes an endoscope to examine and repair internal joints. The advantage is that a smaller incision can be made, which promotes quicker healing. Laser technology used rather than scalpel is used to cut tissue. Commonly used in operations involving the eye, such as in correcting near-sightedness and far-sightedness. Technology involving a laser scalpel can vaporize soft tissue with 
high amounts of water.
