While Heart Disease, Cancer and HIV remain the most prominently known diseases, there are several other diseases which are equally debilitating, although affecting a significantly smaller population. In several rarer diseases, the challenge is to obtain quality information about the disease as there is only a limited amount of patient data available at one location. Web based Technology is changing all this. Healthcare researchers specialized in these diseases, can now collaborate across cities, states, provinces and countries to equip themselves with quality information. Information about prevention, control and treatment can be collected and disseminated using web technologies across the globe, while not compromising the security and privacy of patient information. Datazoom Solutions based out of Mississauga, Ontario, has created a software product and platform that provides the security, robustness and performance to facilitate clinical research into rarer diseases.
