  • HoloLens 2 swapped for Apple Vision Pro in UK spinal fusion operation

    There are currently a lot of procedures we do with ultrasound. The MD/PA/RN has to look back and forth at the screen and the patient. It would be incredible if we could just put on the headset and somehow get a useful image overlaid or even side by side. Might be a little disconcerting for the patient, though!

    Strange story. 

    Women whose pregnancy is complicated by premature separation of the placenta develop vaginal bleeding. Did she not notice the bleeding & only respond to the high heart rate notifications? It takes substantial blood loss to cause the heart rate to increase. 
    Hi,

    please do us a favor and only post something if you have more than a semi-knowledge at best. As an old Roman said: si tacuisses philosophus mansisses.

    placental abruption might cause vaginal bleeding but that depends on the location of the placenta site and if the bleeding tunnels to the cervix.. Many of them don ´t bleed at all as the hemorrhage accumulates behind the placenta itself.
    Many have massive abdominal pain.
    Have seen a multitude with symptoms ranging from nearly nothing at all up to massive bleeding and pain.

    With best regards

    You expect us to just trust your expertise? You think med school and residency and 20+ years of practice make you an authority on your subject area? You are probably pro-vaccine, wear a mask, and wash your hands before patient care. Thanks, but I’m sure YouTube and PornHub has all I need to know about being an ObGyn.

  • Apple's AirTag helps you keep track of your things for $29 each, $99 in a four-pack

    Don't know about yours, but most cars are pretty big.  Plenty of places to hide an AirTag.

    I wonder if Apple record the id of any devices that were alerted to the presence of the AirTag, in case the AirTag is later reported as stolen.    That would seem to be a good idea, though probably brushing up against privacy concerns.
    This is a really good point about how hard it would be for the thief to locate and disable the AirTag...unless it starts beeping at them. Even then there is a pretty good chance the the thief will discard the car/item and flee rather than taking the time to locate and disable the AirTag.

    Apple is 99% going to have a record what device is pinged and where that device was. I suppose they could not record what device sent the AirTag location, but I doubt it. As I think more about the question, though, you may be right. It would be pretty shocking if a stolen or lost AirTag suddenly recorded the location of every person walking around with an iDevice. Of course, the cell companies are already doing that so maybe it is just more of what is already happening. Edit: Apple's web site says, "Devices that relay the location of your AirTag also stay anonymous, and that location data is encrypted every step of the way. So not even Apple knows the location of your AirTag or the identity of the device that helps find it."
