Just a brief note here…

I was wandering the emerging technology section of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2013) in January and came across Phoenix Biosystems, Inc.  They don’t even have a website up and running yet.  They have a proof-of-concept developed that will eventually allow a single drop of blood to be applied to a sensor plugged into your smartphone, and the net result will be something along the lines of cardiac biomarkers like Troponin I and CPK/CK-MB, and maybe Myoglobin.  This company doesn’t have a beta-release so I can’t give you any more than this, but I await this product with baited breath. Now the question is, where in EMS will we get a drop of blood from our patient’s?
