A Brief Note On Electronics And Telecommunication Department

Innovations in mobile technology have brought remote healthcare management to the forefront of advanced medical care. The ability to record the cardiac activity of a patient at home has been available for some time. But that method utilized a recording device worn by the patient, which needed to be brought in to a hospital or doctor’s office for a healthcare professional to analyze. Today, real-time monitoring in the patient’s home is a reality.

As consumers utilize smartphones, tablets, and other devices for other functions like social media and email, they are starting to look at these features to assist them with their healthcare. Mobile body area network devices will be a growing trend in the coming years as a way to get patients engaged in their healthcare and also to give providers routine updates on the status of patients with chronic conditions. As DeGaspari (2014) indicates, these devices can lead to improved functionality for other devices used in hospitals, such as sensors for monitoring patients that might get up and wander or be a fall risk. Telemedicine will continue to grow as payers, providers, and patients all start to realize the mutual benefits that can be

The typical daily cost for single in patients in hospitals was over $1,700 in 2013, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation [10]. Remote monitoring products such as the BodyGuardian provide the healthcare advantages such as the option to move patients to their home and retain monitoring of their status by doctors and nurses. A paper [11] proposes an original, IoT-aware, smart architecture for automatic monitoring and tracking of patients, personnel, and biomedical devices within medical

This paper provides a discussion of the Electronic Health Record for healthcare, explains why it is important for nursing to have a standard nomenclature for nursing care, and compares and contrasts two of the nursing terminologies currently recognized by the American Nursing Association.

The main objective of this project is to design a device prototype that requires for the development of company own system, supports the existing app to monitor health by its branded product functionality, and replaces currently using market beacons. In order to make the design of a device prototype, the company is collaborated with another company, named “Morpho Synthesis Inc. Toronto”. In Morpho Synthesis Inc., we used the following analytical tools to design our project’s implementation

This technological advancement facilitates the potential use of a \ac{WHTD} as a solution to relieve the burden on the health care system. The \ac{WHTD} refers to the devices which are capable of monitoring the physiological signs (e.g., heart activity, \ac{ECG}, \ac{EMG}, blood pressure, body temperature, oxygen saturation, etc.) of the human body and its surrounding environment (e.g., light, humidity, temperature, etc.) using a number of sensors located on or/and in the human body using \ac{BAN} \cite{movassaghi2014wireless,bangash2014survey,jovanov2011body}. This has been employed in various applications, such as military and sports training, \ac{HCI}, entertainment (interactive gaming), home and office automation, environmental monitoring, and \ac{VR}. It has also shown a tremendous potential as a personal healthcare system, which can provide services such as remote patient and elderly people monitoring, activity monitoring, rehabilitation, and disability assistance services as these devices can monitor health status seamlessly in real-time without disturbing users daily life. Consequently, major \ac{ICT} companies are introducing various wearable devices and services with Personalised Health Data management systems. Apple iWatch with HealthKit, Samsung Galaxy fit and Samsung Digital Health, and Google Fit are some of the

This author believes by moving the healthcare from hospitals and healthcare centers to the people home can potentially open up new opportunities to continuously monitor and adjust treatment and prevention plans accordingly. Healthcare cost is enormous and continually increasing, by integrating IoT to daily life of people, healthcare providers can detect and monitor the health of people in real-time and apply better preventive methods to reduce health risk factors and consequently the cost of care. The IoT can help people to manage their own life better by knowing their health status in real-time and adjust their lifestyle habits accordingly. The Patient with chronic disease like type I diabetes can continuously monitor their blood glucose level

My knowledge in this area is reflected with my understanding in the concept of remotely monitoring patients is not new but recently a lot of attention has been placed on smart wearable body sensors (SWS). Therefore, these devices contain an assortment of different sensors which can be used to monitor variables and transmit data either to a personal device or to a storage site. The variety of the sensors can be attributed to the types of stimuli that they respond to, for an example, physiological vital signs, body movements, and organic substances and their placements clothing, subcutaneous implant, body part accessory, and many more. These devices have the opportunity to meet the patients’ needs by administering information in real-time to the patient’s smartphone, computer or other wireless devices and has the potential to influence their behaviours. The sensors allow patients to self-monitor, track, and assess human physiological data, while also providing interfaces and a dashboard for healthcare providers. These sensors are easily managed and are becoming increasingly accurate and reliable for patient care. The SWS’s can also be utilized as a diagnostic tool to

Advancements in technology are causing dynamic changes that further enhance our lifestyle on a daily basis. Did you ever imagine you can answer a complex question only with the power of a handheld device, or what about tracking your every move using only a wristband? Are we capable of streamlining this powerful technology for application into the medical field?

Abstract—An increase in world population along with a significant aging portion is forcing rapid rises in healthcare costs. The healthcare system is going through a transformation in which continuous monitoring of inhabitants is possible even without hospitalization. Now we are using advanced sensing systems to monitor the heart patients and provide first-aid to them in case of emergency. We now demonstrate the real time application in heart rate beat analysing by heart rate monitor and ensure proper working of heart. This paper reviews the latest

Coincident with the increase of healthcare expenditure is the technological revolution in wearable technology, bio sensors, and wireless communication. This technological advancement lead to interest in a new type of network architecture, generally known as body sensor network (BSN) or body area network (BAN), as the solution to relief the burden on the clinical system.

WBAN technology could provide the connectivity to support elderly people and chronic disease in managing their daily life, it also allows easy internetworking with other devices and networks, thus providing the health care worker with easy access to a patient’s critical and non-critical data. A WBAN allows continuous monitoring of the physiological parameters. Wherever the patient is despite the distance such as in the hospital, at home or in the market, the patient will no longer need to stay in hospital bed, but will be able to move around freely. Furthermore, the data obtained during a large time interval in the patient’s natural environment offers a clearer view to the doctors or nurses than data obtained during short stays at the hospital

While writing this paper, I would like to tell that there are many health tracking devices in market which helps us to know our health status. One among them is Apple watch and Air strip.

The potential to create exceptional, innovative products through the use of electrical engineering and embedded systems have always fascinated me. From the miniaturized circuit boards in smartphones and tablet PCs to the large-scale embedded electronics used in aerospace systems (Bozzano, Cimatti, Katoen, et. al., 2011) electrical engineering has long fascinated me. One of the most significant factors that led to my passion for this subject is the revolution that is occurring in the areas of mobile processors, avionics and aerospace systems, where embedded systems are critical to the navigational integrity of the vehicle. This revolution in embedded systems is also leading to an entirely new era of performance in avionics and deep space exploration, which promises to deliver insights never learned before from previous technologies (Kadayif, Kandemir, 2005). Due to all of these factors I am extremely interested in electrical engineering and pursing it a graduate degree in this academic discipline .
