New updates for Open Source Medical Platform Project - Eir

[Kevin Hu]

Hi, everyone,

I am excited to share some summarized latest updates regarding to the open source medical platform project.

[ Codename - Eir ]

We plan to have the codename, Eir, for this medical platform program. In Norse mythology, Eir is a goddess and/or valkyrie associated with medical skill. Eir is attested in the Poetic Edda, compiled in the 13th century from earlier traditional sources.


Menglöð sits with the nine maidens, including Eir, on Lyfjaberg (1893) by Lorenz Frølich.

It's pronounced like "Air". The pronunciation:

We have our program Wiki here:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox_OS/MedicalPlatformProject

We are having intensive discussions and regular meetings with community members, and we put our meeting notes here:

We are also using a Trello board to track high level works:

[ Pain point analysis & Value proposition ]

These weeks, we had a workshop(led by Morpheus and Mark) to collect common seen pain points from members. Then, based on the pain points, we categorized them into two major groups:

1. Prevention
2. Treatment
   

Then, we summarized all pain points into fewer categories in the above groups:

1. Prevention
• Consulting
• Suggestion
• Historical Medical Records
  
2. Treatment
• Feel safe
• Hospitals / Doctors transfer
• Direction to Hospitals / Doctors
• Status of Hospitals
  
• Diagnosis
• Health Monitoring
• Reminder
  

Then, we went through these items and identified technical obstacles and some prerequisites. Detailed discussions are available in the following meeting notes:

[ Deliverable by this June ]

Later on, we prioritized these items, discuss value propositions, and chose feasible items for short term prove of concept. Yesterday, and today, we(led by Greg Weng and Steve Chung) came out a rough technical architecture, and Wesly Huang will work on a good diagram to display the architecture, and submit required engineering work items into Bugzilla soon.



Hopefully to come out the prove of concept workable model by this June.

Thank you.

Cheers,

Kevin Hu

I was suggested to include 2 more groups:

• connecte...@mozilla.com
• CD_al...@mozilla.com

Thank you.

I'm not sure of the regulations in various countries, but in the US, storage and transmission of sensitive medical data is highly regulated by HIPAA [1]. Just wanted you all to be aware of these regulations that may have implications in your technical architecture.

Hi Kevin, has Eir been through the new Product Innovation Process? Just trying to get a sense of where it fits in with the overall strategy here.

This sounds really interesting! You’ll have to let me know when/if you need any documentation support from MDN.

Just FYI you guys are linking to a bunch of internal documents and private groups on a pubic channel. As a contributor it seems strange/annoying. :)

Best,

Hi, everyone,

Happy weekend! It's time to share more updates about Eir to all of you here. If you don't know what Eir is, please visit our program Wiki here:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Eir

In short, we would like to provide a web based solution to reduce the delay between effective diagnosis, and allow doctors to provide timely diagnosis remotely for bed or house bound patients.

Thanks for Fang Shih's help on the above image.

[ Potential Market Size and Ecosystem ]

According to a June 2015 study from McKinsey & Company, the economic effect from cloud connected health technology could range between $170 billion to $1.1 trillion a year in the next 10 years. It is the 2nd biggest impact from IoT, much higher than the impact on vehicles, home, logistics, office, retails and more.

The ecosystem includes patients, doctors / hospitals, medical device manufacturers, and also insurance industry and pharma industry. When it comes to cost savings, the insurance industry stands to benefit the most. Insurers will continue to push the technology innovations that reduce the amount of money they pay in claims, totaled more than $250 billion in 2015, according to the US Treasury Department. Solutions  like these are of vital importance to $1 trillion pharma industry. The reason is simple, the sooner the doctors can detect illness, the sooner patients can start taking the drugs they need to manage or cure their conditions.

[ Technical Architecture ]

Recently, we came out the proposed technical architecture. Thanks for Wesly Huang, Greg Weng and Steve Chung to lead the discussion. We uploaded a diagram to the program Wiki:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Eir#Platform_architecture



You can get completed description from the program Wiki. Next, we will try to dig into details and explore where and how we can improve the security.
