Health Monitoring Device

Description (eng)

Today we mostly wait for the body to break before we treat it. Most of the illnesses that kill us could be prevented by a new way of looking and treating the health and the human body. In the near future we will be able to monitor and adjust health in real time with the help of smart phones, wearable devices, perhaps biochips to track the inner working of the body or even cells, to know exactly what we can do to optimize every aspect of our health. This can help us to create individualized diagnose to prevent and identify ailments or signs of “unhealthiness”. The device is a lookout for problems like risk factor for diabetes, imbalances in blood sugar, or uncontrolled cell growth which could signal cancer. The doctors will be able to monitor the patient continually and offer advices along the way. This patient data will be added to a Database which can be crowd sourced to understand which drug or therapy works best for which people. With the device we will know much more about our body and we can practice the preventive medicine actively. We will not have to wait for an obvious symptom to emerge in order to take an action.
