After Apple released the HealthKit mobile health platform last year, Apple launched the ResearchKit medical research platform this year. What is the difference between the two, and what is the relationship? The author found that the ResearchKit platform is more open than HealthKit, but the area of ​​focus is quite professional. Perhaps Apple's subtext is: Did not say that you are not playing, it depends on whether you have strength, will not play. The author takes you to find out more.
Which custom modules are set up by ResearchKit
ResearchKit leverages the iPhone's own sensor capabilities to track, measure, and record patient data, so patients can generate objective data in real time, regardless of time or site constraints. In addition, ResearchKit is compatible with a variety of third-party plug-ins to integrate external data, that is, hundreds of health care applications can be transmitted to the iPhone via Bluetooth.
Currently, Researchkit has three types of custom modules, namely “situation surveyâ€, “informed consent†and “activity taskâ€. Of course, anyone can modify or innovate on this basis to derive personalized application modules.
Situation Survey Module: The initial user interface has been built and medical researchers only need to identify specific survey questions and answer types.
Informed consent module: Since the protection of patient's condition and privacy is very important, the informed consent module is designed. In Researchkit, the module is flexible and can meet the needs of different situations.
Activity task module: This module is a highlight. Through the semi-control method, the patient's sensor automatically collects data after participating in the specific action.
ResearchK has partnered with Stanford University, Oxford University, Sage Bionetworks, and the University of Rochester to develop five types of tasks that can be divided into four categories: muscle activity (including walking posture, tapping), and adaptability (6 minutes walking). , cognition (spatial memory) and sound (sounding). These tasks are performed by different sensors, and the generated data can automatically generate files, and then the APP analyzes the data to summarize the medical significance.
More open and professional ResearchKit
Looking back at the Healthkit released by Apple in 2014, the two software platforms are both different and connected. Healthkit can also use multiple third-party apps to aggregate all health and health-related plug-ins to form a unified user-visible app called "health." Through Healthkit, researchers can get personal health data from users, and users can choose the specific information they are willing to share. For example, the blood pressure APP can be used to automatically inform the private doctor of the measured blood pressure value for comments. Or use the nutrition APP to measure the calorie value consumed by the user every day, control the weight, and the like.
