drawMD is a suite of iPad applications used by physicians to explain medical conditions and procedures to patients. Designed by two surgeons seeking to improve patient understanding of medical problems, drawMD utilizes the iPad’s unique interface to allow anyone to sketch, stamp, or type directly on the detailed anatomic images included in the application.〔Weed, Julie. (New York Times - "Best Apps for Traveler with Medical Issues" ). ''New York Times''.〕 Users can select one of the detailed anatomic images or upload their own, and then sketch, stamp, or type directly on the images. The images and stamps are tailored to each specialty and allow clinicians to explain treatment plans, including surgical procedures, in a personalized, easily understood way. Clinicians are then able to share those images and notes with the patient and retain them as a record of the consultation. Experienced physicans consult on each specialty to ensure that each application provides the most relevant, useful tools for specialty-specific conditions and procedures without disrupting the normal flow of a patient consultation. Specialty applications in the suite include urology, anesthesia and critical care, orthopedics, cardiology, pediatrics and general surgery. ==References== *iMedical Apps -"top free medical iPad apps" (drawMD is #4) - http://www.imedicalapps.com/2012/06/top-free-ipad-medical-apps/4/ *BetaKit - "Startups Improving Physician Workflow" - http://betakit.com/2012/05/21/startups-in-the-business-of-improving-physician-workflow?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+betakit+%28BetaKit%29 *Philadelphia Magazine - "28 Medical Breakthroughs that Save Lives" (drawMD is #21)- http://www.phillymag.com/articles/28-amazing-ways-philly-doctors-save-life/4/ * Information Week - "11 Super Mobile Medical Apps" http://www.informationweek.com/news/galleries/healthcare/mobile-wireless/240003081?cid=RSSfeed_IWK_ALL 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「DrawMD」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
