摘要

The pace of medical technology innovations is continuously accelerating inspiring hope for better clinical outcomes. Globally, the new aging population requires increasing healthcare services as it is determined to remain active lifelong and thus represents a driving force in the medical system (Bergsland, ACTA Inform Med 20:44–46, 2012). The healthcare evolution allows enhancement of implants that contribute people to access a longer and better quality of life. This aging population benefits of the expansion of digital health, encompassing telehealth, telemedicine, and mobile health. Remote patient monitoring is nowadays a reality (Krishnaswani et al., J Am Coll Cardiol 76:2650–2670, 2020; Khosla, Technology is making healthcare affordable and accessible Healthword from The Economics Times. https://health.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/industry/technology-is-making-healthcare-affordable-and-accessible , consulted on July 13, 2022). Specific attention is paid to guarantee the long-term functionality of cardiovascular devices (vascular prostheses, valves, stents, stent grafts) and transmission of electrical or sensory signals (pacemakers and defibrillators) (Bouchard et al., Int J Acad Med 5:156–164, 2019; D’Orofrio and Gerosa, Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 52:835–837, 2017; Gloviczki and Lawrence, J Vasc Surg 71:1, 2020).
