Title
A situation-aware pervasive approach for assessing therapeutic goals in healthcare environment.
Abstract
This paper proposes a software architecture aimed to provide awareness of the patient's current situation in healthcare environments, specifically in Intensive Care Units. As a central contribution, this work provides a situation-aware pervasive approach to the monitoring of the patient's vital signs, allowing the physician to confirm anytime, anywhere, and with any device whether the desired effect with the administration of medications is being reached. In the developed architecture, this effect desired by physicians in vital parameters is called Therapeutic Goal (TG). The evaluation of the architecture was done through a case study, highlighting the technologies used, and the prototypes developed.
