I'm currently doing an internship in a medical laboratory

They want to buy Ipad and medical device connected to it

example: diabet tester http://www.ibgstar.us/ blood pressure monitoring system http://www.ihealth99.com/

I'm wondering if I can code my own application that gets the data from the medical device and then handle it?

thks for your answers

Answer 1

I think they're some step to success it .

At first you need a Hardware solution like said "Mundi".

You need to grab data from device and store them somewhere accessible (like in a BDD with online acces).

And then the iPad application just have to connecte to the data-Source and play with it

Answer 2

The short answer is YES.

There are many ways to get the data into the app via a network. If you would like to read from the device directly, you would have to additionally find a hardware solution.

Answer 3

I'm not sure this applies, but I've seen some really cool medical apps written using Harvard's SMART project. They provide a simple but effective framework, which is independent of the Hospital Information System (like Cerner, Epic, VistA).
