Leveraging Powers of Mobile | Health Content Advisors - 0 views

  • B2B folks are focusing too tightly on mobile as a distribution platform and overlooking the other aspects of leveraging mobile to run their businesses “easier, faster, cheaper” and I’d add “better” to the mix
  • Healthcare may be the only industry sector where mobile devices are used heavily for professional applications beyond email and texting, but even there publishers have been slow to exploit the mobile reality. There’s been a lot of catching up done in the past year or two to make medical reference publications available in mobile formats, but there’s still a lot of work to do to transform the information in those publications into apps that provide clinical decision support.

  • Rafael Anta underscored that the future of the mobile health sector will depend on how the sector faces certain challenges: strengthening public health management and including targeted innovation.

New iPhone app can detect atrial fibrillation | Healthcare Professionals | Scoop.it - 1 views

  •  
    Take Home: UMass Medical School and WPI have developed an app that can detect atrial fibrillation.  This moves connected and mobile health closer to reality.  The really important development with this approach might allow us to treat patients who have AF intermittently (paroxysmal) differently than we currently do.  Because we are worried about stroke, patients now get blood thinners all the time because we are concerned that they will have recurrences without knowing about it.  With this technology, in the future, we might see validation of a strategy that allows use of blood thinners when patients are in AF only, sometimes called a pill in the pocket.
