Cell Phones and Health Care

I just wanted to make sure that you take a look at the Virtual Medical Worlds website and their description of the various ways cell phones are being used in health care. Here’s an example:

Wireless Obstetrics Monitoring Device . . . a new wireless technology to monitor the progress of high-risk pregnancies and other obstetrics patients remotely. The wireless technology allows obstetricians to use their personal digital assistants (PDAs) or Smart Phones to remotely access fetal heart tracings, maternal contraction patterns, up-to-date nursing notes, and other critical, virtual real-time data transmitted from the hospital’s labor and delivery unit.
