Nice article! Why it’s almost impossible to build a health care startup that works… https://t.co/56VyyBANmH by @nikillinit in @Medium

"It's painful today but we're going to look back in 5-10 years, and there'll be companies that were born in this mess that we consider to be great companies. So if you put your long-term vision hat on, what's your vision for the other side?"- @mcuban https://t.co/pH2h61jyLV

@SusannahFox Thanks, @SusannahFox

What is the difference between a “registry” and an online community of patients empowered with access to their electronic health data and the ability to share?

Are registries as burdensome studies now obsolete?

This Fourth of July, one of the most patriotic things you can do is wear a mask.

#DecentralizedTrials are not new; what's new is only the pandemic-accelerated adoption.

The history of DCT spans 17 years (roughly the adoption curve for EDC).

Okay now this is cool.

Apple introduces hand washing: Your Apple Watch can sense how long you wash your hands and coach you to make sure you're doing it for as long as you're supposed to.

This will be used in hospitals and clinics.

Can not compare recruitment/retention in a trial of a digital device with one for a new drug.

Deciding to wear an Apple Watch cannot be compared to deciding to consume an investigational new medicine. The latter is harder to enroll but easier to retain.

I intubated my colleague today, a young, healthy ER doc like me. This is what I learned...

[M. Kit Delgado, MD, MS @kit_delgadoMD]

Spoke to an NYC ER doctor colleague today who said their ER is intubating 1-2 patients *per hour*. That’s a 12 to 24 new ICU admissions requiring ventilators per day. NYC hospitals about to hit max capacity. Other cities/hospitals must act now to be ready #CoronavirusOutbreak

@boltyboy @johnhancockusa @onduo Many living with chronic disease are routinely denied life insurance even if the condition is very “livable” and manageable. Offering life insurance with good management was available for those with HIV in South Africa for years. It’s about time the US ccaught up.

It’s all about evidence and being fit-for-purpose.... a 510k does not automatically establish either for a device to be used as a study endpoint. Great point, @AndreaCoravos.
