MEDI-TECH

The study of big data in healthcare reveals that diseases such as cancer and events such as aneurysms and strokes frequently catch physicians off guard.

Many patients perish, not because they cannot be saved, but because it is too late to save them.

Therefore, the Medi-Tech industry should develop devices that can remotely monitor patients with chronic or long-term conditions, trace their medication orders and hospital location, and send information to caregivers via wearable mHealth devices.

Sleep and wake patterns, blood pressure, nutrition markers, and other variables can be used to develop a system for early detection of specific health conditions.

When a risk is identified, a notification requesting additional testing can be sent to the patient and their physician.
