Pediatric Tricorder Ready to be Invented?


From HealthyChildren.org - "Is your child sick? Whether you're on the go or at home, this app will help you know what to do next.

What should you do if your child develops a fever, cough, vomiting, rash, sore throat or head injury? When can your child return to school or child care after an illness? These are medical advice questions that all parents have. Health problems can arise anytime – evenings, weekends, when you’re at work or traveling or your doctor’s office is closed.

KidsDoc is designed especially for these times. The care guides help you make smart decisions on what level of care (if any) is needed and how to provide speedy symptom relief for minor illnesses or injuries you can manage on your own.

KidsDoc is derived from the clinical protocols used by pediatricians and nurses in 10,000 practices and 400 nurse advice call centers in the US and Canada. They have been tested for 15 years on more than 150 million symptom calls." - See Full Description at http://www.healthychildren.org/English/tips-tools/Symptom-Checker/Pages/KidsDoc-Symptom-Checker-App.aspx

*********************************************************************

Could this be the beginnings of a Tricorder for children? Let's see.....

What else could be added to this symptom checker app to make into a Tricorder?

Maybe this Build-A-Tricorder "Idea Trampoline" might be helpful in your inventing - http://tgideas.blogspot.com/2012/03/could-open-innovation-hasten-creation.html
