Unexpected smartphone medical application

Release date: 2013-04-24


The invention and widespread use of the iPhone have affected many industries, and now it has spread to the medical field in many ways. In many instances, the optical and computing power that comes with the iPhone gives the device its powerful capabilities. Next we will introduce the twelve medical application cases. We believe that these cases will affect the actual operation of health care in an in-depth and continuous manner.
iPhone Otoloscopes Otoscopes are also known as remote earpieces and cell phone microscopes. The versatile iPhone can be used not only to view the inner ear, but also to take photos and send it to a doctor or specialist when at home or in the field. The iPhone Otoscope has been certified by the FDA (US Food and Drug Administration) and will serve as one of the Internet medical accessories in the future. This groundbreaking mobile, wireless, and portable ultrasound device is used in a wide range of applications in the medical field in the United States and throughout the world. Its reasonable price further expands its range of applications, especially in rural and third world regions, and is also widely used in emergency rooms, operating rooms, wards and offices. Of course, sometimes more advanced ultrasound equipment is needed, but smartphone ultrasound as an imaging device is a great place to start medical diagnosis, such as diagnosing blood vessels, gallstones, kidney stones and abdominal masses. Very practical. This invention will benefit people who are unable to pay for medical expenses or live in remote areas.
Affordable, mobile, unlimited, portable ultrasound equipment The product shown above is the world's first smartphone ultrasound imaging system Mobisante, called the MobiUS SP1 ultrasound system. This product has been FDA-approved to reduce medical costs and improve diagnostic conditions in areas where imaging centers are not available.
According to them, "MobiUS combines the power of a smartphone with a wireless connection with a revolutionary diagnostic solution that is easily accessible to individuals. The patents we are applying for will increase the ease of use of the system while sharing information remotely. ”
The so-called "killer application" refers to the invention of measuring blood glucose using a non-invasive method. This day has not yet arrived, at least not yet FDA-approved products, but will soon become a reality, ALTAPURE said they will be the first to launch a similar product.

iPhone blood glucose meter: IBGStar
IBGStar is a blood glucose meter connected to the iPhone. There is also an IBGStar diabetes management app on the iPhone that tracks blood sugar, carbohydrate intake and insulin usage.
This peripheral manages the diet of diabetes by sending reminders and recording data.
It is still necessary to puncture the skin when measuring blood sugar. There are also other new types of electronic devices that can detect blood sugar by avoiding intrusion into the skin.
At Caltech, engineers invented a Petri dish that helped identify microorganisms. The iPhone is used with LEGO bricks to read the data in the Petri dish in real time after being placed in the incubator.
Learn how to put in a petri dish and observe the growth in real time through a remote computer. This saves manpower and allows the Petri dish to be processed multiple times, to some extent automating the process.

iPhone Petri dish This device currently only shows how the microcomputer makes things more efficient and saves labor in the lab. It is more likely that there will be a microcomputer similar to the iPhone for this purpose, and the appearance may not be like the iPhone at all.
The iPhone ECG, which has just been approved by the FDA (December 2012), is a single-wire ECG recorder that is mounted on the back of the iPhone and displays the heart rhythm through an app (Android version is under development). Device inventor Dr. David Albert is a cardiologist in Oklahoma who likes to be called an "inventor." As the son of former US White House spokesperson Carl Albert, David believes that the iPhone's electrocardiogram can be used by emergency caregivers in the intensive care unit. According to information collected since June 2012, his company received more investment from wireless giant Qualcomm.

iPhone Electrocardiograph: AliveCor
This product is a peripheral device that costs around $100 and can provide real-time, high-quality ECG monitoring with any phone. This device can be used anywhere a smartphone is available for quick diagnosis of some heart problems, including arrhythmia. AliveCor does not really diagnose myocardial ischemia (MI) because it only provides one wire and does not provide a comprehensive image with multiple wires. A full-featured electrocardiograph is also expected, and Dr. Albert said it will be able to completely diagnose myocardial infarction.
In addition, the low cost of this product enables it to be used in the field of mass image diagnostics in developing countries.
As with other wireless devices, users can send any questionable ECGs to their mobile phones, allowing cardiologists in developing countries who lack the resources of doctors to conduct remote consultations.
This well-funded company is moving globally and has only recently moved to San Francisco.
AliveCor's ECG equipment basically meets the needs of medical professionals and general users to monitor heart health. Its heart monitoring technology is compatible with iPhone, iPad and Android devices.

iPhone Assist Slit Lamp: Eyepiece Digital Adapter The iPhone Eyepiece Adapter can be connected to an iPhone 4 or 4S for high-definition pictures and videos. This product is suitable for most slit lamps currently on the market.
In addition, after taking a photo seen through the slit lamp, it can also be sent to any place via the network. These are one of the important features of the device. Microcomputers are getting stronger and stronger, and more work in the future can be done by the patients themselves.
