A very exciting article and it speaks to the capabilities of the iPhone to help save more lives! EMS Options, LLC, developed smart-ICE, the smart application providing critical medical information to Police, Fire and EMS personnel in the event the patient can not speak for themselves. smart-ICE utilizes an internationlally recognized symbol, that will gain the attention of emergency personnel and includes an internal feature to alert the first responder if the patient becomes unconscious. With the ability to store current medical problems, medications, allergies, hospitalizations and much more, smart-ICE carries the ICE (In Case of Emergency) concept to a whole new level for smartphones!

Great article! I have been using TheCarrot.com on my iPhone to proactively manage my health and wellness. I understand the founder developed the app to help mange his asthma and his father-in-law manage diabetes. Based on its success, they developed a bunch of other free, integrated trackers and a great reporting tool to help people like me who want to be active in managing my health. It’s a great tool and they’ve been incredibly responsive to user suggestions for new apps. They recently release women’s health trackers and an app for the swine flu. Check them out — http://www.thecarrot.com.
