Automated AST Market is defined based on the technologies used to measure the resistances of antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents to specified microorganisms. Present goals of computerized AST are to help identify an appropriate antimicrobial regimen in patients with bacterial, viral and fungal infections in microbiology laboratories. These systems take lesser time than traditional methods, provide accurate antibiotic susceptibility data, reduce work load, improve a patient’s health and reduce antibiotic resistance through apposite actions.

Automated suturing devices are contemporary medical instruments intended for suturing of the affected tissues or surgical cut with little human-interference. These devices improve the level of accuracy and time to complete surgeries by employing the use of automatic systems to place sutures, minimize time and benefit the patient. It is expected in various specialty surgeries like general, orthopedic, gynecologic surgery being deployed and integrated with robotic system to enhance precision and manipulability.
