 * ASUS Transformer Prime Tablets**

Technology has had a great effect on the healthcare profession. Every year when I go for my yearly check up it seems like the doctor has a new piece of technology that they are using to record my check up results. As of recently doctors all over have began using tablets such as the iPad to help them with recording results of patients, X-rays, and performing surgeries. The future of medicine is remarkable because of technology. Technology has made life so much easier for people and very much easier for doctors around the world. There is not any need for paperwork anymore because of technology and booking appointments are doctors are much easier. Technology and these new tablets make life so much easier and more organized for doctors.

Not only does technology and these new tablets that have recently hit the market have a direct effect on doctors but also the health of kids around the world. There is an app for the iPad and iPhones that is called my fitness pal. This application keeps track of calories, exercise, and tracks the exact date that you will reach the goal weight that one set for them based from the calorie tracker and exercise tracker. Technology has a direct effect on the obesity problem of America it could be for better but it seems like technology is changing the way people live for the worse especially the kids that are growing up now. Instead of going outside to play football with friends, they just sit home and play videogames and virtually talk with their friends. This is terrible for the health of kids growing up and has a direct correlation with technology. Kids think why play football out side, when I can play a football game on my iPad. An example would be my girlfriends sister she is in the big technology generation and all she does is sit on her iPad all day and suffers from being over weight because she does not exercise.



The Video above shows how a lot of companies are beginning to have the same idea about tablets not just the apple products. Now hp has began to make tablets and they are targeting the healthcare profession as one of there major target markets. They have goals set out to make the best tablets for doctors do perfect the healthcare profession and make it as easy as possible for doctors to record important information from surgeries or patients information. Technology has come such a far way and is now becoming extremely advanced to the point where our health is benefitting majorly from these tablets that have been released in the passed couple of years. I think that is very cool that doctors are using these tablets to help themselves but again going back to the problem of obesity. These doctors might have the ability now with technology to perfect bypass surgeries for these obese kids but how bad will the future generations be with technology and these tablets. Will they even talk to other people face to face? Or will the whole world be run virtually. Technology is definitely awesome and these tablets are very cool, and are great for doctors and many other professions.
