Many of our guests are visiting the Executive Briefing Centre located in Brussels, Belgium and have the occasion to see some of the Microsoft demos related to smart house applications and the Personal Health Record platform (HealthVault).

Some days ago, I made a short film outlining the user friendliness of Microsoft Surface device coupled with a demo of the Microsoft HealthVault. In this short demo, my colleague Christoph-Matthias Voltz kindly demonstrated the secure access to a medical record from the point of view of a health professional  or a patient managing his family Personal Health Record. measuring vital parameters, communication between patient and health professional and prescribing or checking medication is facilitated by intuitive interfaces:

Moreover, the interaction between patient and a health professional during a consultation is facilitated by the joined implementation of the Personal Health Record (HealthVault) and Amalga UIS (Unified Intelligence System) by one of the partners of Microsoft (Infusion). The result is a seamless cooperation and exchange of information between patient and his or her care provider:

Hoping that you enjoyed these short films, I hope that we will meet you in the future in one of our Executive Centres around the world.
