Self Management of Personal Health (SMPH) is a new concept & has become very necessary now, as thousands of cases are reported all over the world on professional negligence and deficiency in service by the healthcare providers.
Generally a life time health record of a person can be very bulky consisting of hundreds of prescriptions by various consultants and hoards of investigations,
thick X-ray films, CT scans or MRIs which may be very cumbersome carrying it during journey. By converting it into electronic format it can become so light that it can be easily carried in pocket.
This is a very novel way to keep your health record during travel anywhere in the world. The health record is kept in a pen drive which contains all your X-rays, MRIs, CT scans & other laboratory investigations along with your all consultations with doctors.
In case of need you have to just plug in this pen drive in a computer and it can open on its own revealing all your records to the consulting doctor.
Usually during consultation with a doctor past history of any disease or any operations or past investigations are important to make a diagnosis, but patients usually don't carry all their documents with them during traveling.
Most of the time it is not practical also. Many times patient due to apprehension or nervousness or due to his general physical state can’t tell important facts about his past diseases or medication. In such circumstances this EIHR can come handy saving much of doctor’s time & helps in making early diagnosis.
