Exacerbations are crucial events in chronic diseases that require continuous management. Knowledge of the exacerbation risk enhances patient's quality of life and enables self-management and self-organizing of unscheduled doctor visits and/or hospitalization. This paper proposes a new framework for ubiquitous management of chronic diseases named u-MCHC. The proposed framework incorporates monitoring, decision-making, notification and management processes in order to deliver personalized therapeutical options and services. The delivery of services is realized by means of Next Generation Service Delivery Platform (NG-SDP). A prototype implementation of u-MCHC and its performance is demonstrated in a real world case for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). |
