The Biomedical Model. The biomedical model of medicine was developed in the 19th century as a response to the medical knowledge of that time. The knowledge being that man was a part of nature and therefore could be studied in the same way as nature, at a cellular level. The biomedical model was highly successful in identifying main causes of illness and death at that time, these were accidents and infections. The biomedical model suggests that man only got il from things which invaded the body or from accidental damage. Also the biomedical model suggests that man is either healthy or ill - there is no 'in between.' However, as the century progressed individuals no longer died from infections, society changed with industrialisation, living conditions improved, nutrition improved and new illnesses such as Coronary Heart Disease and cancer became the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. The biomedical model no longer was as effective due to the fact that other factors, social and psychological, played a part in illness. The biomedical model still stands today in identifying illnesses and diseases but not what causes them and what causes death.

The biomedical model causes on the physical aspects of diagnosing a disease. Whereas biophysocial model is a diagnosis based on a patients emotions, or sociology. The factors in question both play a major role in determining the cause of an illness. At times separately or in unison.
The biomedical model fits in well with the functionalist perspective as it sees ill health as being dysfunctional to society. For functionalists if people adopt the sick role and are exempt from their usual roles and responsibilities.

I think biomedical implant are an amazing development and has its advantages and disadvantages. To use biomedical chip to improve the physical health of someone life would be a great impact to the world of medicine. There is also a non implant version that is used at hospitals within the new born nursery unit to prevent kidnapping of newborns. I think this is a great way to use the biomedical device.
