Implanted biomedical devices inside the human body—such as pacemakers, smart insulin pumps, and neural prosthetics—represent an unprecedented medical achievement that has transformed the lives of millions of patients. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence technologies, it has become possible to enhance the efficiency of these devices, making them smarter and more capable of adapting to the patient’s needs in real time. Here, a direct connection emerges with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being. 1. Improving the Quality of Healthcare and Early Prevention Artificial intelligence algorithms continuously analyze patients’ vital data, such as heart rate and blood glucose levels, to predict health crises before they occur. This predictive ability reduces the need for emergency interventions and protects patients’ lives. In this way, the vision of sustainable development is achieved by promoting good health and well-being through preventive and intelligent care. 2. Reducing Costs and Enhancing Health Equity AI-powered implanted devices reduce unnecessary hospital visits, minimize medical errors, and lower treatment costs in the long run. This helps relieve the financial burden on public health systems, enabling more equitable access to medical services—even in communities with limited resources. 3. Supporting Sustainability through Smart Resource Management Through precise patient monitoring, these devices reduce the need for additional medical resources, such as repeated tests or excessive medication. This rational use of resources aligns with the principle of responsible consumption and production, one of the key pillars of sustainable development. 4. Technological Innovation as a Pillar of Sustainability Artificial intelligence embedded in implanted devices represents a model of integration between technological innovation and healthcare. This innovation not only addresses individual health issues but also lays the foundation for developing resilient and sustainable healthcare systems capable of facing future challenges such as population aging and the rise of chronic diseases. Smart control of implanted biomedical devices through artificial intelligence is not merely a medical advancement, but rather an investment in sustainable development. It improves patients’ quality of life, reduces costs, enhances health equity, and minimizes resource depletion. Thus, this technology becomes a clear example of how innovation can serve both humanity and sustainable development. Al-Mustaqbal University — The First University in Iraq.
