Ebola Rapid Test Reading and Data Capture

Fio Corporation

Fio Corporation is adapting its Fionet solution to connect rapid diagnostics and data in the fight against Ebola. By integrating intelligent mobile devices for diagnosis, treatment, and data capture with cloud-based information services, the system will deliver complete, reliable data within minutes from frontline health workers to remote health managers and organizations responding to the Ebola outbreak. Patients will get results right away, so they can be instantly isolated, released, or tested for other causes of illness. Health workers will be able to instantly feed contact tracing data to Fionet via smartphones and tablets, which reduces time lag between data captured in the field and the response. With real-time access to interactive network maps of contacts, managers will be able to quickly identify others who might be infected and begin to arrest transmission.
