VANOC computer chips redefine medical history storage for athletes

The age-old practice of recording a sportperson’s medical history on paper sheets will soon see its demise, thanks to the health chips being developed by VANOC. If things fall into place, the chip could make its way into the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. The individual computer chips offer the most reliable way of recording a athlete’s medical background, thus enabling attending doctors to dispense treatment in a more effective manner. The chip appears to be the most feasible solution to the predicament currently being faced by physicians, who end up lending improper care and treatment to an athlete. The computer chip will carry an athlete’s complete health history and medical charts. Once it is plugged into a PC, medics can review the athlete’s healthcare background. This significantly enhances the response time as well. Via Theglobeandmail
