Title
Cooperative Algorithm to Improve Temperature Control in Recovery Unit of Healthcare Facilities.
Abstract
Healthcare facilities spend a lot of resources on taking care of patients while they recover from their illnesses. IoT (Internet of Things) devices are used to monitor and control the environment of healthcare facilities. According to Spanish standards of hygiene and safety in hospitals: the temperature must be between 18 degrees and 24 degrees C and relative humidity of 60%. In this paper, we present a cooperative control algorithm to increase data quality and false data detection via edge computing in healthcare facilities. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that blockchain can be used to store data in an immutable and secure way. In this work we present a new model for the efficient control and monitoring of indoor temperature in healthcare facilities, reducing energy consumption and storing data in a secure and immutable way via blockchain.
