AED-CPR Week’s Shocking Start - Funny AED-iPod Medical Parody
Posted by Dun Tzu on the May 29th, 2009
AED/CPR Awareness Week is the first week in June. That’s this week. So, I’ve been thinkin’ (yeah… scary…)
What would it look like if Apple teamed up with Google Health and Microsoft Health Vault… and Guidant, Johnson & Johnson, Boston Scientific… and the Red Cross… and your GPS system? (Can’t we just all get along?) Could you imagine the possibilities?
I mean, if you ignore the death of privacy and the possibility of lawyers performing keyword searches through medical records (iSue), it would be pretty cool.
So, in honor of the possibilities, GiggleMed.com has chosen to release it’s iHealth Humor Series during AED-CPR Awareness Week. All week, we’ll show you new iHealth/iPod possibilities… with parody and humor, of course.
If you teach ACLS or work in the ER or as an EMT, you’ll love the fact that these hilarious medical humor designs are available on all kinds of gifts… gifts for the one who has everything.
If you found this funny and you’re on Twitter, then tweet it now (& follow me at the same time)…

That’s hilarious! But I must say I’m not so put off by the possibilities of digital medicine - I’ve been using Microsoft HealthVault (http://www.healthvault.com/Personal/index.html) for quite a whiel now and I love it. It makes doctor visits easier, since I don’t have to keep a million things in my head, and I’ve been sharing my blood pressure readings with my doc online. Keep it up!

Thanks Rob… glad you liked it.
I’m not put off by the possibilities of digital medicine, at all. I love the possibilities… But at the same time, I just cautious of their unintended consequences.
I just saw on an EMR a patient’s name listed as “Angina, Has” - my guess is that it was her chief complaint or the triage nurse’s assessment… either that or this ladies parents had a very sick sense of humor :)
