Sažetak
Today’s world is pervaded with changes caused by the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to this pandemic, world economies are confronted with many turbulent challenges and prompt adjustments in different industries. The key to solving challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic is healthcare, but at the same time, it is most affected by the unfavourable effects of the pandemic. Given that the technological innovation development and application simultaneously cause positive changes in societies and economies, this paper explores how technological innovation has supported global healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic. For this purpose, a systematic review of the scientific literature in two world-renowned databases of scientific papers: Web of Science and Scopus, is conducted. The scientific articles considered for this literature review were articles published and indexed in the mentioned databases during the pandemic period, therefore, from the beginning of 2020 until now. The research results indicated technological changes and new technologies applied in healthcare, which resulted from the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Moreover, the results showed the outcomes that technological innovations application has attained in healthcare during the COVID-19 pandemic. Also, the results indicated shortcomings in the field of research on this topic, based on which recommendations for further research are defined.
