Stanford Study: Google Glass Helps Surgical Residents Identify Complications Faster
A pilot study by Stanford University finds that surgical residents who used Google Glass to monitor patients' vital signs during simulated surgeries were able to more quickly identify and better address complications than surgeons who did not. The study found that residents who used a Google Glass program while performing a mock tube placement surgery identified simulated hypotension 10.5 seconds sooner than the control group.
