In the demonstration, the health device solution on the Google G1 Android Phone interoperated with a Continua-Certified pulse oximeter from Nonin Medical. The oxygen saturation levels and heart beat readings gathered by the pulse oximeter are transferred wirelessly over Bluetooth to the G1 mobile phone which then displays these readings. The readings can be stored for future reference or as a further application that can be uploaded onto the Internet to an Electronic Health Record (EHR (Electronic Health Records) Computerized medical records that bring patient care into the digital age and save time, money and lives. The push to adopt comprehensive electronic documentation between doctors' offices and hospital settings intensified after the RAND ).

This also brings about the need for improved interoperability among health devices.

MindTree's solution on the Android platform not only enables connectivity, but also demonstrates the interoperability between such devices.

"Continua Health Alliance is encouraged by the launch of MindTree's implementation of the Continua Version One Bluetooth device interface," said Continua Health Alliance President and Chairman of the board of directors, Rick Cnossen. "The MindTree technology will foster and accelerate the development of Continua standards-based mobile solutions available to consumers."
