Abstract
The number of patients who want to keep track of their personal
physical condition is increasing. The approach presented in this paper aims at
tracking patients' vital signs using the telemonitoring solution i-Residence and
transferring them to an Electronic Health Record in a standardized way, according
to Continua Health Alliance guidelines. To access these vital signs, a highly
portable mobile health application is developed to make personal health
monitoring records and visualization available on smartphones and tablet
computers for patients and medical personnel. The system is currently tested in
two research projects with multiple patients, to examine impacts in real life
application.
