Abstract

A method and system are adapted to provide healthcare to a patient. A portable registration device (18) having a navigation function (40) is provided. The registration device (18) records health information (16) of the patient (10). The health information (16) is then automatically stored in a database that forms a digital medical journal (58). A medical professional activates the medical journal (58) to retrieve the recorded health information (16). The medical professional prepares a diagnosis and treatment (62) based on the health information (16) stored in the on-line database (52).
