What is mHealth?
Mobile Healthcare solutions can improve the lives of millions of people all over the world and help to overcome some of the major health challenges today, such as diabetes. Governments and insurance companies are looking for solutions for prevention and treatment of chronic diseases. A particular problem in developing countries is the lack of widespread availability of diagnostics. mHealth is a viable and inexpensive solution.
Maher Khoury, CEO of HMM Diagnostics: "The Grand Tour is a test for our unique devices. The athletes test our technology in all conceivable situations. During the journey, the medical instruments transmit determined data by the ANT + standard to our thumb-sized hFon collect device. This small device sends data via GSM mobile of our partner Orange to the patient record. The measured values are important for health monitoring of the pedaling patients and for parallel scientific studies. My team and I look forward to the challenge. "
