Interactive Care Technologies www.icaretech.com   Tech-enabled Chronic Care for Medically Fragile Patients—Daniel C. Davis Jr. MD FACP.  Created by Dr. Davis and Lee Cory in Honolulu. Camcorder on a rolling tripod with antenna which connects remotely to a PC or mobile hand held device to view live video of patient and CT scan.

This Site www.americantelecare.com    (ATI)   shows equipment purchased by Maui Comm Col by Nancy Johnson from a Rural Services Grant.  Equipment for the grant plus, training and setup cost about $150,000, has 14 patient “visitors” and one central monitor.  The average cost of each unit was just under $10,000 with add-on monitors etc. ATI sells the computers and the stethoscope and AMD sells the rest of the monitoring devices ( http://www.amdtelemedicine.com ).  The monitor computer was designed by HP. Maybe a little short on storage. One monitor can only handle 5 patients without additional “cards” for patients.  Could be in the nursing station at a small clinic like Lanai, with Doctor or Nurse Host on Maui Island. Coupled with Interactive Care would cover all of the options except for the very fragile.  It appears that one is in the education center (not the clinic) on Lanai and the other in the education center on Molokai.  About half of the 14 are still on the shelf last I heard. Many of the monitoring devices are adaptable to computers with a USB port.  The standard devices seem to be glucose, stethoscope, oximeter, Blood Pressure, Digital Scale. Electrocardiogram devices are available too.        (AMD monitoring devices)

The number of adults who turn to the Internet for health information has nearly doubled in the past two years, from 31% to 60%. That puts the Internet in a tie for third place (with books and print materials) as the source adults most often turn to for health information. At the top, 86% of those surveyed say they most often consult a health care professional, and 68% say they consult their family or friends first. The increase is partly because there are more Internet users than there were when the survey was last taken in 2006, says Susannah Fox, associate director of the Pew Internet & American Life Project, a non-profit research organization.

Connected patients spread new ideas, new treatments, and new ways of approaching a condition. Patient networks can help you anticipate change and innovate in the right direction. Social media can be a window into their world. Pew Internet surveys show that 8 in 10 Americans have access to the Internet. Social media use is trending up. Health is holding steady as one of the most popular activities online. E-patients are listening to each other, consulting hospital reviews and doctor reviews, and posting which treatments work for them. People living with chronic disease, your best customers, are less likely to go online. But their loved ones may fill in the gap. One-third of American adults care for a loved one and eight in ten of those caregivers go online. One-third of adults experienced a medical emergency in the past year, either their own or someone else's. They are online too. A medical crisis flips a switch in people. It makes them want to become superheroes and save a life if they can. The Internet is very often their weapon of choice.

The long-term answer to improving the health of the nation's population and curbing costs, experts agree, is to help people make smarter decisions day in and day out about their own health. And the most powerful potential tool in the march toward intelligent consumerism in health care may be the Web. Already, surveys show that a majority of adults in America routinely scour the Internet for health information. Doctors joke that the standard second opinion of diagnosis and treatment has become a patient's Google search, with the results printed out and brought to the doctor's office. But the Web is still mainly a vast trove of generalized health information. The ideal, health experts say, would be to combine personal data with health information to deliver tailored health plans for individuals.
