The Health Guide by Intel

Intel is intending to get into the health sector, and this is their latest FDA approved gadget to monitor your health. The health guide takes and checks vital signs and then sends the secured encrypted information back to doctors. Its basically a PC running windows XP thats connected to the internet - so it can also work as a video conference system.

The aim with the device is save time and money by shifting the continuous monitoring of patients with chronic health care problems, from the hospital to the home.

Already its saving lives. According to Intel, in one early deployment, an elderly man's blood pressure started to increase several days in a row. Using Health Guide, the doctor noticed it and was able to respond and prevent a heart attack.
