Abstract

General & Internal Medicine Life Sciences & Biomedicine Medicine, General & Internal Medicine, Research & Experimental Research & Experimental Medicine Science & Technology
The Quantified Self Movement, which aims to improve various aspects of life and health through recording and reviewing daily activities and biometrics, is a new and upcoming practice of self monitoring that holds much promise. Now, the most underutilized resource in ambulatory health care, the patient, can participate like never before, and the patient's Quantified Self can be directly monitored and remotely accessed by health care professionals.
