Mesurez votre santé sur Internet .. le Quantified Self

Mesurez votre santé sur Internet .. le Quantified Self | Patient Hub | Scoop.it

Des millions d’Américains surveillent chaque jour sur Internet leurs données médicales. Un phénomène qui gagne du terrain en France grâce notamment à des outils d’automesure.


Savez-vous ce qu’est le Quantified Self (en francais auto-mesure) ? Il s’agit d’un service en ligne personnalisé qui vise à collecter vos propres données médicales. L’objectif étant de vous autosurveiller et améliorer ainsi votre bien-être ou votre état de santé. Cette pratique quotidienne intéresse tous ceux qui souffrent d’une maladie chronique, comme le diabète ou l’insuffisance respiratoire… Ou tous ceux qui font des efforts pour surveiller leur poids ou leur tension artérielle. Lancé en 2007 aux États-Unis par deux journalistes du magazine Wired, Gary Wolf et Kevin Kelly, le Quantified Self (QS) a d’ailleurs fait l’objet, mardi dernier, d’une conférence à l’Atelier BNP Paribas. Selon un de ses intervenants, Emmanuel Gadenne, manager chez Sopra Consulting, ces pratiques d’automesure ont démarré au Canada et Outre-Atlantique.

Why Preparing for the Future Matters in Health IT

There are seven minutes between commercial breaks on an average sitcom. Each television commercial is 15-30 seconds long because tests have shown that is the ideal range to convey a message to a person with an average attention span. A tweet lives approximately 2.5 hours before it vanishes from timelines and social media memory forever. Presidential candidates promise tangible future progress and change, yet provide very little detail on the work and sacrifice it will take to reach that goal.
