CIBERNETICA INFORMATICA MEDICA

4 meses duró mi investigación sobre ecógrafos portátiles, viajes, gastos, estuve en China, India, EEUU, Alemania. Quedo con dos maravillas que tengo y una que no tengo .

Dos pequeños ecógrafos de la China Emperor captaron mi atención por su potencial, aunque tuvimos que esperar que termine el desarrollo y nuestra propia investigación. Despues la norteamericana Biosound con la que mantengo nexos en Ecografía Doppler(estaré importando sus equipos el próximo año).

La maravilla que no tengo es el nuevo ultraportatil ecógrafo de la Siemens, pero que no tenga la representación no quiere decir que no me guste.

Aquí la web técnica de los Emperor 820 y 830 que se estan vendiendo como pan caliente en el Perú:

V.S. RAMACHANDRAN in The Edge:
Freud once pointed out that the history of ideas in the last few centuries has been punctuated by “revolutions,” major upheavals of thought that have forever altered our view of ourselves and our place in the cosmos. First, there was the Copernican system dethroning the earth as the center of the cosmos. Second was the Darwinian revolution; the idea that far from being the climax of “intelligent design” we are merely neotonous apes that happen to be slightly cleverer than our cousins. Third, the Freudian view that even though you claim to be “in charge” of your life, your behavior is in fact governed by a cauldron of drives and motives of which you are largely unconscious. And fourth, the discovery of DNA and the genetic code with its implication (to quote James Watson) that “There are only molecules. Everything else is sociology”.

If all this seems dehumanizing, you haven’t seen anything yet. Consider the following thought experiment that used to be a favorite of philosophers (it was also the basis for the recent Hollywood blockbuster The Matrix): Let’s advance to a point of time where we know everything there is to know about the intricate circuitry and functioning of the human brain. With this knowledge, it would be possible for a neuroscientist to isolate your brain in a vat of nutrients and keep it alive and healthy indefinitely. Utilizing thousands of electrodes and appropriate patterns of electrical stimulation, the scientist makes your brain think and feel that it’s experiencing actual life events. The simulation is perfect and includes a sense of time and planning for the future. The brain doesn’t know that its experiences, its entire life, are not real.

Further assume that the scientist can make your brain “think” and experience being a combination of Einstein, Mark Spitz, Bill Gates, Hugh Heffner, and Gandhi, while at the same time preserving your own deeply personal memories and identity (there’s nothing in contemporary brain science that forbids such a scenario). The mad neuroscientist then gives you a choice. You can either be this incredible, deliriously happy being floating forever in the vat or be your real self, more or less like you are now (for the sake of argument we will further assume that you are basically a happy and contended person, not a starving pheasant). Which of the two would you pick?

Most drugs need to be protected against exposure to extremely hot or cold temperatures.

One Extreme Situation: Capsules of an asthma drug were badly degraded after being left in an overheated metal mailbox on a hot summer day in Arizona.

Comments: The overheated mailbox is given as an example because more and more people are receiving medications by mail these days. But there are other situations in which drugs can be exposed to unfavorable conditions. For example, our prescriptions are delivered from our neighborhood pharmacy in Florida and unless we are home when they arrive, they may remain outside for hours. Drugs can also be exposed to extreme temperatures during travel. For example, inside the trunk of a car. Or when traveling by air, drugs in checked luggage can end up sitting out on the tarmac where it is rarely room temperature.

Capaz de encontrar y eliminar todos los virus conocidos y ademas es capaz de
reconocer virus y variantes no descubiertas.

No forma parte del proyecto SaluX pero es un excelente proyecto que nos brinda la posibilidad de convertirnos en nuestro propio CA.
La entidad interesada en certificar a sus integrantes sea un Hospital o una red de Hospitales no necesita un CA privado para brindarles certificados digitales.
De esta manera se explotan las caracteristicas de seguridad de SaluX https (http+ssl) con firma digital.

Bueno estoy de regreso con el blog despues de un ataque tremendo por parte de comerciantes de enlaces que utilizaron robots para hacer miles de comentarios.

Hay gente que esta discutiendo la seguridad en sistemas destinados a
Medicina o Salud.
Es Care2x seguro completamente?
Pues no, puede caer, pero no somos los unicos que estamos pensando en ello,
hay un ejercito ya lo sabemos.
Una de las cosas que me parece debemos aclarar en el SIS y en otros frentes
es que los desarrolladores de soft libre y open source no nos queremos
enfrentar al sistema propietario.
Queremos orientar politicas, plataformas y estandares que hagan el software
en Salud accesible a todos.
Yo creo que pensar que es un enfrentamiento contra la propiedad intelectual
es algo fuera de lugar.
Los del sistema propietario tienen que considerar seriamente que la
interactividad que permite internet terminara por hacerlos no viables.
