The promise of the emerging “wireless-life sciences” sector is to deliver connected personal healthcare and to eliminate significant barriers to quality and efficiency in the delivery of healthcare services.

• Wireless-Life Sciences enables the collection of real time information from remote diagnostic devices that live with patients in their normal setting and thus deliver more accurate and clinically relevant information than can be obtained in periodic visits to a doctor’s office.
• It is transforming how hospital IT systems communicate internally and with staff and physicians by enabling the timely delivery of important information to the point of care.
• Wireless-life sciences products and services will enable disease management platforms that can serve large populations while decreasing personnel demands, thus bringing scalability to the DM sector (which now depends on the availability of skilled nurses speaking the right languages).
• Systems in use today enable ICU physicians to remotely view all the monitors in a unit from wireless PDAs and cell phones.
• Other wireless-life sciences platforms offer continuous monitoring and peace of mind to individuals who have been diagnosed as possibly suffering from heart arrhythmias that could result in death.
• Wireless communications will enable virtual physician visits by videoconference cell phone and today provide improved ways to contact healthcare personnel on the fly, thus avoiding delays inherent in “leaving a message.”
