Medical aids are more readily available in portable format now than ever before, and I'm talking sophisticated equipment, not pharmaceuticals... For instance, I recently discovered that you can actually get the next best thing to your own ECG unit, a holter system that can monitor your heart as you go about your daily routines. Having portable systems means that your doctor may be able to supply a unit so that you can be assessed without having to take time out to have a hospital appointment - it's a system that can work to take workload off the hospitals, and also to fit into the daily routine of the patient.
