Burnout among healthcare professionals is reaching a critical point – a hidden crisis that is affecting healthcare systems across Europe in delivering quality care to patients.

As European populations age and the burden of chronic disease continues to rise, demand for surgical interventions is set to increase significantly in the coming years. At a time when we urgently need more surgeons and healthcare professionals, the risk of losing them to burnout threatens the resilience and long term sustainability of our health systems.

In this Policy Views, Francois Gaudemet, President, Surgery EMEA, for Johnson & Johnson MedTech, reflects on why burnout must be treated as a challenge for healthcare systems, not just an individual one - and how we can do better to support surgeons and healthcare professionals.

Innovation at the heart of Europe’s medtech sector I With more than 2 million medical technologies, Europe’s medical technology sector is not just growing—it’s transforming the way healthcare is delivered through a constant flow of innovation.

The medtech industry continues to push boundaries with its innovation engine. Every 30 minutes, a new patent is submitted in Europe, with over 15,700 patent applications filed alone in 2025 – making the sector one of the most dynamic and innovative industries in Europe.

Innovation is essential to meet evolving societal and health needs, improve patient outcomes and strengthen healthcare systems.

Coordinated and sustained actions across the care pathway are crucial to improving cancer patient outcomes.

From innovative screening tools and precision diagnostics to advanced treatment and monitoring solutions, medical technologies play an essential role throughout the whole cancer continuum. They support earlier interventions, enhance patient safety, and contribute to more resilient and equitable healthcare systems.

With the , we can deliver better care to patients, strengthen clinical decision making, and help healthcare systems respond more effectively to the growing cancer burden.

On , Lynsey’s story is a reminder of the important role of early detection and diagnostics in improving cancer outcomes.

Lynsey didn't give much thought about the freckle on her back, as it wasn’t painful. What she didn’t expect was a melanoma diagnosis.

Thanks to an AI-powered skin cancer detection technology, her cancer was identified early, allowing doctors to act before it could spread further. Today, Lynsey is a strong advocate for regular skin checks and early screening.

Despite growing awareness, avoidable harm remains one of the most persistent challenges facing healthcare, highlighting the limits of systems that respond only after something has gone wrong.

As the focus increasingly shifts towards prevention, attention turns to how safety can be designed into healthcare from the outset, through leadership, culture, data and system-wide approaches rather than reactive fixes.

In our latest Policy Views, Greg Quinn, Director of Public Policy & Advocacy for BD UK & Ireland, reflects on the need for a systems-based approach to patient safety and explores the critical role health technology can play as a partner in building safer, more resilient health systems for patients and professionals alike.

Medical technologies are all around us — improving lives in countless ways and helping people live longer, healthier lives.

But what exactly is medical technology?

➡️ Medical technologies are products, services, or solutions designed to save and enhance people’s lives. They support us at every stage of care — from prevention and diagnosis to treatment and long-term management. Broadly, they fall into three main categories:

❇️ Medical Devices (MDs): products, services or solutions that prevent, diagnose, monitor, treat and care for people;

❇️ In vitro diagnostics (IVDs): non-invasive tests used on biological samples to determine the status of a person’s health;

❇️ Digital health: tools and services that use information and communication technologies to improve prevention, diagnosis, treatment, monitoring and management of a person’s health and lifestyle.

Explore our latest Facts & Figures to learn more about the more than 2,000,000 medical technologies available today and the value the MedTech sector brings to Europe’s citizens and health systems. 👉 https://bit.ly/48VD3q8
