This report is published at a critical time for the medical device industry. During the last five years US and European healthcare providers have been modernising their core IT infrastructure and creating platforms which will supportthe next generation of wireless ehealth applications.
We have researched three key areas of online healthcare: telecare for senior citizens, remote care and diagnostics, and the increasing penetration of the healthcare market by the consumer electronics industry. In terms of market size we see the remote health and fitness market alone growing to more than $4 billion per annum over the next 10 years and have identified a number of companies that are using their positions in the health and fitness device market to attack the ehealth sector.
The report contains profiles of 24 vendors who, by thinking outside of the box, have already made an impact on the wireless based ehealth market and have developed products and services that leverage a new ehealth model. Vendors profiled include:- Qualcomm, Cerner, Docobo, AMD Telehealth, Tunstall, Oracle, Nintendo, Vitaphone, Broomwell HealthWatch, Polar Electro, Google, Tplus Medical, Card Guard, IBM, InterCure and HeartMath.
"Wireless Healthcare 2008" provides an overview of the mobile and wireless ehealth market and examines how vendors are meeting the challenges posed by an industry that is attempting to co-opt a new and highly disruptive business model.
As with other Wireless Healthcare reports the research methodology used is based on the concept of equivalence whereby, in attempt to gauge adoption rates and market size, new wireless based medical services and technologies are compared with their equivalents already in use within non medical sectors.
