Elizabeth Orr discusses DeepWell DTx's newly launched VR game for treating stress-related hypertension and anxiety. Natasha Barrow provides an overview of Digital Mental Health Technologies regulation in the UK and Brian Bossetta reports ‘the good and bad’ from Medtronic's report on digital technologies' use in the operating room.

AI and generative AI ruled much of the discussion at HLTH Europe 2024. A panel of health care leaders from Microsoft, Philips, insitro and Johnson & Johnson discussed how these new technologies are already transforming health care and pointed to risks and challenges.

This week, the ACLA filed a lawsuit against the US FDA; Philips recalled around 100,000 ventilators; women’s health companies Natural Cycles and Gameto padded their coffers; and Canary Medical and J&J’s Ethicon received FDA nods.
