Popis: | Ubiquitous healthcare has become one of the prominent areas of research inorder to address the challenges encountered in healthcare environment. In contribution to this area, this study developed a system prototype that recommends diagonostic services based on physiological data collected in real time from a distant patient. The prototype uses WBAN body sensors to be worn by the individual and an android smart phone as a personal server. Physiological data is collected and uploaded to a Medical Health Server (MHS) via GPRS/internet to be analysed. Our implemented prototype monitors the activity, location and physiological data such as SpO2 and Heart Rate (HR) of the elderly and patients in rehabilitation. The uploaded information can be accessed in real time by medical practitioners through a web application. 13 pages, 6 figures, International Journal of UbiComp (IJU), Vol.4, No.2 |
