New iPhone app can detect atrial fibrillation | Healthcare Professionals | Scoop.it - 0 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.

Often, asthma is hereditary. In order to aid your doctor diagnose you or your child's asthma, you must answer your doctor's questions as correctly as possible. The questions would usually be about your symptoms, the medical history of your family, your current medications, your allergies, etc. This is called medical history. Most of the diagnosis is based on the patient's medical history. The doctors also conduct physical examinations and may recommend some tests like the Peak Flow Meter (breathe-o-meter) and Spirometry tests.
