快速健康检测医疗设备或可造福医生患者


These two devices could help save your life.


这两种设备能够帮助挽救你的性命。


Researchers at George Washigton University in Washington DC have been working on medical tools to speed up the process of diagnosing some health problems.


华盛顿特区乔治华盛顿大学的研究人员一直致力于研制能够加快病情诊断的医疗设备。


The first, a device named “a tricorder”, can test blood, urine and saliva 1 samples.


第一种设备是能够检测血液、尿液及唾液样本的“手持科学分析仪”。


This chip contains a complex liquid network to test those fluids.


这种芯片包含一种能够检测这些液体样本的复杂液态网络。


The diagnostic results are forwarded to a Smartphone app, says the inventor of the device.


这种设备的发明人表示诊断结果会直接发送给智能手机上的APP应用软件。


“And the goal of this is to bring accessibility, put this thing in potentially a physician's office, or even in the patient's home.


“设计它的初衷是提高便利性,可以放在医生办公室或患者家中。


And then also the speed.


而且诊断速度也非常快。


You can get the results at least within hours, if not minutes.”


几分钟内得不到检测结果,几小时内也会得到。”


The second invention is worn like a piece of jewelry-a flexible ring embedded 2 with a wireless 3 electrocardiogram sensor 4 that can also diagnose heart irregularities, as well as other conditions.


第二项发明是能够戴在手上非常柔软的一种戒指,它的内部具有能够诊断心脏异常等症状的无线心电感应器。


Like the tricorder, the results are delivered to your phone app, or directly to your doctor.


就像手持科学分析仪一样,检测结果也会发到手机APP软件上,或者直接到医生手中。


"I think a ring is really the only thing that people wear all the time and also it's relatively 5 stable compared to other format 6, like a wristband or watch.”


“我觉得人们唯一能随时戴着的是戒指,而且相比腕带或手表等其它物品更加稳定。”


But some people may not like this do-it-yourself health care.


但有些人或许不喜欢这种自己动手的医疗保健方式。


"There are people who are not comfortable, don't like this kind of, putting sensors 7 on their body.


“有人觉得不舒服,他们不喜欢这种把传感器放在自己身上的做法。


But for people who have chronic 8 conditions, who are sometimes at risk of, for example, heart attacks, this type of device could be useful and life-saving.”


但对于患有如心脏病等慢性病的人而言,这种设备则能够派上大用场,可能会救人性命。”


 


Both diagnostic tools could be in the hands of doctors and patients within just a few years.


这两种设备预计几年内就将帮助到医生及患者。
