Bluetooth to link patient and doctor's systems when a visit is happening (to record the visit)

  • There could be a button in the patients phone that says: "allow doctor to access your medical history, and record this visit"
  • How reliable would the tech be?
  • Can you get a button in an app to turn on bluetooth?
  • Doctors are likely to be using laptops - bluetooth is a no-go!

Cloud-based system

  • Needs to store all doctor-patient visits that are uploaded from either doctor-side or patient-side application

  • Needs to match any records that are duplicated because both patient and doctor apps uploaded them successfully

Doctor-side application

  • On receiving bluetooth connection from patient-side application, then needs to download their medical history
  • This can come from 2 sources: directly from the patient's phone; from the cloud system. This makes the system more robust!

Patient-side application

  • On sending bluetooth connection, the applications are linked. Any info that the doctor types in could either be immediately sent to the patient's phone, or downloaded by them later... This is an important question!
  • => how difficult is it to set-up an immediate sync?
