Dr. Raj Khandwalla of Cedars Sinai Medical Center
spoke with mHealthIntelligence.com to offer his
opinion:
“It all comes down to data streams including which
ones are predictive and what data streams are not
predictive,” Khandwalla began.“If you look broadly at
the term data stream, you can get data streams from
biosensors that are implanted, biosensors that are
wearable, and labs that are checked on a regular basis. Biomarkers that
would come from those labs could potentially have even more predic-
tive power.”
“The way I see it evolving is data streams coming from implantable or
wearable devices as well as regular testing of biomarkers, which will
come in the form of lab tests,” he continued.“As lab tests become
easier to obtain, that will be another very powerful data stream. Once
we find biomarkers being tested on a regular basis, it will lead to new
biosensors to test blood tests noninvasively.The labs will lead to new
sensors being formed and all of it will lead to more data streams. Over
time, those data streams will become more predictive of people’s
health.”
