The Apple Watch would likely be an ideal tool to improve prescription compliance in older patients. Perfect for issuing reminders about time and dosage (and for getting a confirmation that the task has been completed).
- robbiep 12y agoThey just have to remember to recharge it daily
- feld 12y agoYeah, this wouldn't work for my dad who has Parkinsons. The watch would be dead and he'd still need reminders for pills...
- dang 12y agoThanks. We changed the url to that from http://www.apple.com/live/2015-mar-event/f407b6b3-5575-4069-87c2-4d3ca949cb2c/ http://www.apple.com/live/2015-mar-event/f407b6b3-5575-4069-....
- drchiu 12y agoWe've actually already solved this problem pre Apple Watch. It's called Blister Packs, which basically is an arrangement of the medications of when a patient is supposed to take them.
- tomkinstinch 12y agoBlister packs help, but they won't buzz on your wrist at the right time to take the meds (with a text reminder indicating what all of the buzzing is about).
- wiredfool 12y agoBlister packs are great for figuring out which doses you forgot. And that's with nominally functioning adults.
- ja27 12y ago> Perfect for issuing reminders about time and dosage It wouldn't surprise me if that needs FDA approval.
