This disease is consuming major cost for the healthcare industry. Here Data Analytics has stepped in and provided a solution. The solution consists of a disposable wireless Band-Aid-like biosensor (the FDA-certified HealthPatch), which helps in real-time processing of patient data, and consumable analysis that allows medical professionals to take immediate action.
