The rising concern about human healthcare is one of the biggest challenges the world is facing today. Neurological disorders and epilepsy are certainly surging issues that require substantial knowledge for treatment. Studies suggest that nearly 150000 Americans fall prey to the life-threatening disorder related to the central nervous system which causes seizures. It is not a surprise that epilepsy is one of the most common health issues that one in every 26 Americans suffers in their lifetime. A report by CDC states that 1% of the American population suffers from this disorder and the world health organisation records nearly 50 million of the world’s population has epilepsy. Neurological disorders are rampant in the world affecting millions of lives globally. People suffering from dementia are approximately 47 million globally and nearly 7 million new cases occur on a daily basis. Therefore, there is a great need for knowledgeable and professional surgeons to treat patients suffering from epilepsy. The growing demand for specialists to treat patients is seen through various statistical data with the employment growth of nearly 5% in the last 5 years, the biotech industry is surging with employment opportunities indicating the need.

In today’s dynamic world possessing a mere educational degree is not sufficient, therefore Mr Akramov has proved learning and innovation is a continuous process. Moreover, his inclination to create mobile applications is apt for this generation where people look for more convenient options which are hassle-free yet allow them to keep track of their health. His unique developments in applications work through smartwatches, smartphones, and tablets. His creative mind and amazing scientific skills enabled him to create a new-age app available through platforms like AppStore and Google Play. Thus, one of the major contributions of Mr Akramov is to develop technological aid for epilepsy patients which is the Epihelp program. It is highly useful and helpful for patients as it helps them in detecting seizures beforehand. Everyone knows the importance of notifications, today with smartphones and new applications many important things are reminded to people through notifications. One of the key benefits of the Epi help program is that the relatives and friends of the patient will be notified before the seizures begin. The advantages are not limited to sending information as it goes further to building a healthy lifestyle for the patients. It offers a quality life by preventing the hazards of seizures. It is cost-effective and promotes a positive way of leading life. His mobile application is based on Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) gyroscopes which are motion sensors that work on rotation and motions of the object around a particular axis: l-axis, 2-axis, and 3-axis identify excessive or repeated movements. Also, the medication tracker keeps a tab on the patient’s intake of medicines. Dealing with the severity of chronic disorders like epilepsy is challenging and often causes trauma to the patients. Also, research by The Epilepsy Foundation states that more than 1 ln 1,000 people with epilepsy die due to Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP). By keeping track of the triggers the mobile app like the Epihelp program creates awareness to the patients and the family about the symptoms to take necessary precautions. This step of early diagnosis and detection helps in tracking seizures.
With an amazing list of accomplishments that have truly demonstrated value, he certainly adds value and profitability to the economy of the country and its health ratio. He would bring about great change to society especially in the U.S. with the learnings and abilities that are greater than expected. Furthermore, his undivided attention to the patients and medical science acts as the crux for him to develop and create innovations that promote good health, make patients and society informed of new technological benefits to improve health, and with his wealth of knowledge that articulates to be greater than the certifications he would be an asset to the country adding more worth to the national interest.
Mr Akramov is surely an expert in his field with multilingual skills which bring advances to the field of rehabilitation science, neurology, and healthcare in the U.S. and his substantial contributions offer a wonderful impact on the national economy.
