Abandoning the Old for the Radically New
When faced with a serious disease, patients are often in the
dark about their disease in general, what the latest research
says, and how it can apply to their individual disease
progression. Going online to search for health information is
almost a reflex now: over 70% of Internet users (and 88% of
caregivers) look online for health information, and they are
hungry for answers, so they go through dozens, sometimes
hundreds of websites to gather the latest research,
1_Blank anything that can take
publications, opinions, anecdotes,
them closer to an answer. What if you could receive all the
latest information about your specific situation directly by
email? That’s what Medivizor proposes to bring to patients &
caregivers for serious conditions. For free. Flattening medical
knowledge from patient-generated content to scientific
publications curated and edited for the general public. In
ePatient Dave’s words: “clarity is power.”

Scientific research paper Medivizor’s interpreted summary
(PhD Language, ~20 indecipherable pages) (~300 words, 9th-grade English)
In a nutshell
This study evaluated whether fatigue in the
acute (immediate) phase following a stroke
predicts physical and mental health outcomes.
The bottom line
In summary, this study showed that acute
phase fatigue after a stroke predicts lower
Human + Artificial physical health at 18-month follow-up.
“Brains”:
Combined The fine print
Fatigue management should be included in
clinical guidelines for stroke treatment and

“Medivizor made me aware
that the medication my
mother was prescribed, would
be dangerous for her specific
situation. The doctor didn’t
consider her full list of
additional conditions.
After discussing with the
doctor, he agreed, and
changed her treatment plan.”26
