　Interfusion, a healthcare company, has developed a new device, the PBA (Personal Behavioral Assistant). It is a fully interactive electronic device that is smaller and more accessible than a PDA. The PBA microcomputer, built into a wristwatch, provides a dedicated platform for custom software applications written to meet clients’ specific needs.

　It facilitates patient participation in compliance training and monitoring, and provides the counselor with comprehensive data for evaluation in treatment management. The PBA is designed for dedicated applications, and will be cheaper than a PDA.

　Interfusion will market the PBA through strategic partners to pharmaceutical companies for drug compliance monitoring
