PORTLAND, Oregon, September 15, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Mobile health (mHealth) is an area of electronic health (eHealth) that delivers revolutionized healthcare services through mobile technologies such as mobile phones that enable the remote monitoring of patients suffering from acute and chronic diseases. The growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, obesity, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), creates an impending need for technologically advanced platforms for the prevention and treatment of these diseases. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimate of 3.1 million deaths occurred due to COPD in 2012, which accounted for about 5.6% of the global death toll. In 2012, nearly 6.7 million deaths occurred due to CVD stroke which accounted for about 11.9% of the global death toll. The frequent launch of smartphone based medical devices such as cardiac monitors, respiratory monitors and blood glucose monitors address the need for regular health monitoring and treatment of diseases.
