[By staff reporters]

Mike Harsh, chief technology officer for GE Healthcare, tells the story of a doctor who had trouble placing a stethoscope to the chest of a cardiac patient and listen his heart because of a tangle of cables coming from monitoring devices attached to his torso.

“You sort of understand what the problem is,” Harsh says. “People wear so many wires. It just tethers them right to their beds.”

  1. On Wearables

    “As long as tech companies view wearables and apps as consumer-driven markets, these products will remain a fad. But if they engage physicians to recommend these products, wearables and apps will be viewed as part of healthcare and become permanent fixtures.”
