Abstract

This study explores the transformative role of digital innovations—specifically artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), and big data analytics—in addressing critical challenges within the Syrian healthcare system, a context defined by limited resources, disrupted infrastructure, and significant healthcare disparities. By integrating these technologies, healthcare delivery can be revolutionized through predictive analytics, remote monitoring, and personalized treatment strategies, thereby enhancing clinical outcomes, operational efficiency, and system resilience. The research investigates the current landscape of digital health adoption in Syria, identifying infrastructural, technical, and policy-related barriers while proposing data-driven frameworks for strategic implementation. Emphasis is placed on how AI-driven diagnostics, IoT-enabled remote care, and analytics-informed decision-making can collectively support evidence-based practices and facilitate the transition towards a patient-centric, precision medicine paradigm. This paper offers targeted insights for policymakers, healthcare providers, and technology developers aiming to modernize healthcare in conflict-affected and resource-constrained environments. The findings contribute to the broader discourse on sustainable healthcare transformation, demonstrating the potential of digital technologies to strengthen healthcare infrastructure, foster health equity, and support long-term development goals. Moreover, the paper underscores the necessity of robust data governance, ethical AI frameworks, and cross-sectoral collaboration to ensure equitable and secure deployment of digital health solutions. Ultimately, this research provides a strategic roadmap for harnessing digital innovation to achieve improved healthcare outcomes and resilience in Syria and similar contexts.
