Abstract
The healthcare industry is facing increasing pressures to embrace new technologies that support greater patient access to, and higher quality of (but at the same time offer cost-effective), healthcare delivery. This pressure has spawned a plethora of initiatives to embrace the possibilities and potentials of technologies to develop and then diffuse new devices, new pharmaceutical products and support minimal invasive surgical techniques that will facilitate superior healthcare delivery. Pursuing such initiatives from idea generation to commercialisation and adoption, however, also necessitates new alliances between academe and industry to ensure rigorous research followed by rapid diffusion to support the realisation of these initiatives so that the patient becomes the ultimate beneficiary. This in turn requires new research methodologies for such applied research scenarios. The Accelerated Mapping-to-Realisation (AMR) methodology is used as an appropriate knowledge-based methodology to ensure academic rigour and validation and also facilitate rapid diffusion and commercialisation of m-health initiatives.
