Integration of diagnostic and communication technologies.

Abstract:

:Three key areas in diagnostics will drive the convergence of diagnostic and communication technologies: point-of-care testing, micro-electromechanical systems and biomarker discovery. In addition, the communications revolution means that increasing numbers of people will be able to send data from their home to their doctor using the Internet. Also, the widespread availability of broadband opens up the possibly of realtime videoconferencing with clinicians. It is already possible for patients at home to monitor simple variables, such as heart rate and blood pressure, and send their results using communication technologies to their doctors, who can promptly review the information to diagnose problems. As diagnostic and communication technologies converge, it will be feasible for patients to transmit more complex health-care data periodically to their doctor, who will be able to identify problems early on and thus modify disease management to prevent exacerbations of patients' medical conditions. This will allow improved patient care in a wide range of health-care situations, from acute medical conditions to chronic disease.
