Title
Ubiquitous tele-monitoring kit (UTK): measuring physiological signals anywhere at anytime
Abstract
The Ubiquitous Tele-monitoring Kit (UTK) is aimed at helping the clinician in acquiring, managing and normalizing information coming from the patients at home and storing the data in a distributed system. This approach aims to reduce costs in the healthcare system and alleviate the inherent problems to chronic patients who usually may visit the doctors. The proposed system closes the tele-monitoring loop; wearable and ergonomic sensors integrated in the textile, automatic detection and storage of the information coming from the sensors in a common platform (XNAT) and processing and visualization of the retrieved physiological signals presenting the data treated to the clinician to optimize the continuum of care and the decision-making.
