To do that they want to make devices that do not require batteries.

For people with conditions such as athsma, doctors sound out their pipes using a spirometer. The exhaled volume indicates if the patient’s air passages are clogged and leading to difficulty breathing.

Wearables technologies are increasingly used to collect and transmit health or fitness data directly from the user's body. As most our smartphones have become so much a part of us that it might be considered by some to be a wearable. One study even showed that 90% of adults 18-29 years of age sleep with their smartphones. A smartphone most often resides in your pocket and must be extracted to seek information or to determine the source of the vibration or tone notification. The smartwatch is not only a readily accessible extension of the smartphone, but it also can be a source of physiologic data derived directly from the wearer's body. That is its true value proposition in healthcare. Apple wasn't the first to the smartwatch table, but it wasn't the first to the smartphone table either. The Apple Watch™, however, might represent the first wearable that truly penetrates the healthcare market. Why? Because the device is an industrial tour de force and part of a strategy in which healthcare penetration was a very deliberate goal.       http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/845762 https://padlet.com/caroline_mckeever/36pelra0aojm/wish/124761293 2016-09-19 14:29:11 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline_mckeever/36pelra0aojm/wish/124761293 https://padlet.com/caroline_mckeever/36pelra0aojm/wish/124761387 It's being pitched as a bionic Olympics.

Until now a major barrier to them moving from printing tiny sheets of tissue to entire 3D organs is that they hadn’t figured out how to develop the blood vessels that provide cells with nutrients and oxygen, and allow them to excrete waste. This essential process is called “vascularisation” and is necessary if researchers are to ever prevent cells from dying so they can grow large, transplantable organs https://padlet.com/caroline_mckeever/36pelra0aojm/wish/124762518 2016-09-19 14:31:48 UTC https://padlet.com/caroline_mckeever/36pelra0aojm/wish/124762518
