How do wearable devices like Fibit change doctors and patients?

As a modern patient, he is faced with a networked information base and knowledge base, not just a single doctor.
Today's smart devices, their size has become smaller, and our relationship is closer - in addition to calculating the number of steps, blood pressure, blood sugar and other human biometric data will also be measured. Some people worry that we live under the supervision of "big brother", but for doctors, wearable devices like Fitbit have the same data as a gold mine.
In fact, the doctor's consultation is to verify the patient's condition. The problem is that it is difficult to get rid of the one-sided problem of diagnosis, whether it is the past "expectation" or the use of more advanced tools for diagnosis. The human body is also rhythmic. With the change of 24 hours a day, different organs of the human body work according to the biological clock, and it will be reflected in some characteristics of the body. Experienced doctors will determine which traits are natural changes in the body, and doctors with less experience may not be considered comprehensive.
Wearables give doctors an opportunity to fully understand the changes in the body anytime, anywhere. Although they are all boring figures, aren't scientists making progress in scientific theory and practice through the results of boring experiments? Now, in addition to having wearable devices, we will also have a mobile medical platform. For example, Microsoft's HealthVault allows doctors to access the database inside, which is collected by people from wearable devices such as Fibit.
In fact, according to Business Weekly, the fourth largest electronic medical record center, Practice Fusion, has partnered with AliveCor and Diasend this year. AliveCor is a smartphone heart rate sensor supplier. Diasend is an online diabetes management system provider. As long as patients agree to the FDA agreement, the information they collect will be recorded in Practice Fusion's electronic medical records. - Thus, Practice Fusion has become the bridge between communication wearables and doctors, namely information brokers and stores.
Recently, some people have complained about the homogenization of domestic wearable devices. They can be described by several keywords. The function of a wristband plus a pedometer plus heart rate sensing is a smart bracelet. In addition, the application scenarios of wearable devices are not good, as I said before, if you push the smart bracelet directly to consumers, it may not be able to achieve good results, because domestic consumers still do not accept statistics. habit.
Although through the experience of failure, many entrepreneurs have begun to develop wearable devices such as heart rate sensing, but the ultimate focus is on the interoperability between patients' families and patients, heart rate, blood pressure, diabetes and the like. After collecting it, what should I do? I could not find a good solution.
In fact, the current hospital has collected a large number of patients' medical records and data. They also need more data from patients. They also hope to have more exports and provide perfect medical services for patients. Many hospitals have tried to open them before. WeChat public number, remote consultation. Now, there is no communication and connection between hospitals and wearables entrepreneurs. But in fact, hospitals with long-term visions have seen the trend of wearable devices.
In the recommendation of Subversion Medical, the following sentence left a deep impression on me. In fact, according to the central view of Subversion Medical, when the wearable device replaces the doctor’s “expectation,” this may change the tradition. Medical model - for patients, they only need to see their own health data, and make some inferences, and the doctor's role is to help patients to judge: as a modern patient, he is faced with a networked information base And a knowledge base, not just a single doctor.
