Automakers use steel scraps to build cars, construction companies repurpose tires to lay running tracks, and now scientists are reusing previously discarded medical data to better understand our complex physiology. Through a website called PhysioNet developed in part by Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center cardiologist Ary Goldberger, scientists can access complete physiologic recordings, such as heart rate, respiration, brain activity and gait. They then can use free software to analyze the data and find patterns in it. The patterns could ultimately help health care professionals diagnose and treat health conditions like congestive heart failure, sleeping disorders, epilepsy and walking problems. PhysioNet is supported by NIH's National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering as well as by NIGMS.Madalena Costa and Ary Goldberger, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical CenterMadalena Costa and Ary Goldberger, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical CenterPhotograph
