Here's a great idea -- bring the hospital monitoring equipment home with you. The microchip company Intel has come out with a new (and user-friendly size, not surprising) monitor that allows a patient to go home from the hospital and still have their vital signs monitored 24 hours a day. Nightingale/Aspire Home Healthcare is the first company to offer these units to its patients across the country. Not only can the machine monitor vital signs, but it can also custom-program rehabilitation exercises, replacing those stick figures the doctors always give us, for days when the physical therapist doesn't visit. To see a demonstration of this cool technology, click here and then click on the Fox News video.
