Remote Monitoring for Health

On today’s Good Day Health Show - ON DEMAND…Host Doug Stephan and Dr. Ken Kronhaus of Lake Cardiology (352-735-1400) cover a number of topics affecting our health. First up, Doug and Dr. Ken begin with a story about a stem cell that’s been derived from helper T-cells, diving into how this therapy will help those with cancer. This is a development that aims to lead to more people beating cancer. Continuing on with good news in health news, there is a breakthrough for Sjogrens Syndrome patients, a debilitating autoimmune disease that lacks specific therapies. Then, Doug and Dr. Ken shift focus to the health watch Doug wears with Ken monitoring Doug’s health. While Doug feels fine, his watch is telling Dr. Ken otherwise. This goes beyond the fitness tracker devices people wear, this is a medical grade device where doctors can monitor their patients health, including their stress level and heart-related health issues. The device is a helpful tool because it not only lets doctors know what is going on in their patients’ bodies without them being in the office, but it also helps people keep alert to things about their body they may otherwise miss. Many doctors out there are beginning to be more focused on preventative measures, and preventative-cardiology is gaining more notice. Website: GoodDayHealthrShow.com Social Media: @GoodDayNetworks
