On November 29, Patricia Mechael, Executive Vice President of the Personal Connected Health Alliance (PCHA) and Zhong Daidi, Chairman of PCHA China Working Group visited More. The two sides exchanged insightful ideas on the data interconnection and industrial standards of smart wearable and remote detection equipment in the broad health field.

 

 

 

PCHA, a non-profit organization under HIMSS, focuses on the acquisition and analysis of personal connected health data, industry research and standard formulation. "Continua Design Guidelines" have been widely used by the global personal connected health industry, adopted and published as ITU-T International Standard by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), thus becoming the only international standard for end-to-end interoperability in this field. PCHA members are from enterprises, international organizations and government institutions in the fields of information technology, medical devices and medical health, including renowned enterprises such as A&D Medical, Ascensia Diabetes Care, CTTL, China Mobile, Huawei, Intel, Neusoft, Nonin, Orange, Philips and Samsung.

As a leading enterprise in the domestic mobile health field, More has focused on  the interconnection of smart wearable devices since its establishment, and built an open health data and service platform "More +" in early 2016. At present, the platform has been connected to 300-plus smart devices, and accomplished data interconnection through Bluetooth connection, server connection and account sharing. It has outputted SDK products to tens of customers in industries including insurance, physical examination, mobile phone makers and telecom operators, thus accumulating a great amount of data of user health behavior.

In September 2017, More launched China's first "health management information interactive big data platform" in association with the Center for Chronic and Non-communicable Diseases of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Communications Standards Research Institute of the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology. The platform aggregates the health data of different smart hardware to build the complete health data e-records for users and provide operable health data basis for medical data access and chronic disease management.

Both of the sides agreed that the popularization of user behavior data acquisition, storage and standardization will be a future trend with the wide application of mobile wearable equipment, big data and AI. PCHA spoke highly of More's efforts in China. Later on, the two sides will deepen the cooperation in industrial standardization research and popularization. With the concept of opening and sharing, "More +" established by More within only two years is gradually achieving a triple leap from corporate standard, national standard to international standard.
