HEALTHCURSOR CONSULTING GROUPHow does Mobile Health relate to me as a Doctor?
2
A Prescription that is worth millions……
Health - a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely theabsence of disease or infirmity.- The most enduring definition till date….

(R)Evolutionary Medicine --------------------------------------> Evidence based medicine
Because we collect hundreds ofthousands of ECGs, we can analyzeheart rhythms and create predictivealgorithms tailored to gender, race,and age
Because we have banks ofthousands of lung images, scanned,bar-coded, and registered, we cancreate lung models for computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) of lungdisease
Because we have monitoring andlaboratory information on over onemillion ICU patients, we cantransform the data into algorithmsthat help predict and treat sepsis andrelated adverse events

Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is thenew mantra.
It evaluates the strength of the evidence ofbenefits and risks of treatments.Its processes mandate a systematic search ofinternational medical literature to ferret out relevantresearch.It attempts to assess the quality of the evidenceand ranks its sources.Its rigorous methodology, elaborate checklists,detailed assessments and quality controls haveraised research standards.It recommends that the best available evidencebe used to aid clinical decision-making and policy.It has improved the evidence base. EBM haschanged medical practice.

Medical ErrorsThe most common errors per 1,000 visitsare:• 65 incidents per due to adverse drugevents• 60 incidents due to hospital acquiredinfections• 51 incidents related to proceduralcomplications
Adverse Drug Events (ADEs) areresponsible for $2 billion per yearnationwide in hospital costs alone. It’sestimated that a national healthinformation infrastructure can saveabout $140 billion per year throughimproved care and reduced duplicationof services.
Medical errors are responsible for 30%of the price of healthcare More than 50% of the $17- $29 billionnational cost associated with medicalerrors is preventable Medical errors cost 10-15% of ahospital’s annual operating budget

The Doctor Says….
“I haven’t used a stethoscope to listen to apatient’s heart in two years. “Why would youlisten to a heart when you have anultrasound in your pocket?”
‘“Stethoscope” is a term that is outdatedbecause it implies the ability to “look” orscope into the patient’s chest.
and he did a live demonstration of GE’sVscan ultrasound device.
The story here is that a remarkable digital infrastructure has been built and yet the medicalworld is in a separate orbit, a cocoon of sorts. This is the beginning of a coalescence of athese two fields, where medicine can leverage this fantastic digital infrastructure. Not justwireless but the idea that you can digitize the whole human being.
We’re used to digitizing books and movies but now we can digitize people with wirelesssensors, advanced medical imaging, even genomic sequencing. mHealth is a way to takethis forward, because now we’re talking about a mobile platform, a way of getting that dataon any individual, to individualize their care, to allow prevention of significant illnesses. Thisis a unique opportunity, the most exciting time in medicine ever.
