Drive Results for a Healthier Population: Freescale

http://www.freescale.com/medical - In this video Steve Young (BAM Labs), Ram Fish (Blue Libris), Kent Dicks (MedApps), Tony Belkin (Hospira) Hans Hartmann (Fitbit), Michael Garrett (Garrett Technologies) and James McDonald (Cactus Semiconductor) explain how connecting patients, healthcare professionals and hospitals results in more than a healthier population. It lowers healthcare costs, increases access to care, improves patient care and empowers patients. Healthy people can monitor biometrics such as blood glucose levels, cholesterol, heart rate and weight, giving them a visible window into their own health. Remote monitoring and telehealth allow the sick and elderly to get medical care and manage chronic conditions, such as diabetes, without having to drive long distances. With the latest devices, displays and connectivity technology, healthcare professionals have improved access to medical records to speed diagnoses and treatment.
