Best Answer

The simplest answer to this I think is medically.

Technology has given us the autoclave, the pasteurisation process, chemical antibiotics, bacterial cultures, fine surgical instruments including needles and blades that have been chemically sharpened, the optical and electron microscopes, miniature cameras, lasers and magnetic resonance imaging. To name but a few.

Non-medically, from my own regular experience, it has also given us climbing safety devices such as harnesses and high strength nylon ropes, alloys used in carabiners, parachute cord which is very thin and very strong, mylar-coated rescue blankets and emergency shelters, and self-heating food. All of which have unarguably served to extend my life far beyond the several seconds I would have left in a fall at terminal velocity or the several hours stuck on the side of a mountain during a blizzard.
