HeartPOD Helps With Heart Failure Digitally

Savacor Inc. is betting that you have congestive heart failure and that you want to be able to keep control of it digitally. So they bought up every last Handspring Visor from the junkyard they could find and slapped their software onto them. The result is the HeartPOD, a system designed to help monitor the patient via a sensor implated into the heart and an old-skool Palm. Currently it’s still in trials and testing but could one day be available to all heart failure patients who need constant monitoring.
