Tyto Care is the subject of a
brief innovation story in this week’s Businessweek magazine. http://tytocare.com/
The concept is to allow everyone
to do a small personal physical exam, and eliminate or reduce some doctor’s
office visits. The results can be seen
by the patient – and can be e-mailed to the doctor’s office for filing and to
keep a chart to see if there are changes that warrant an office visit.
The device checks
Temperature
Basic self exam of heart,
lungs, throat, ears, eyes, and skin.
Not yet on the market, but
coming. Note the website is cleverly
designed, as you scroll down, the hand held device moves with you and appears in
photos that show it at various angles and “in use”. Very clever website design.
