Cloud Care: A Remote Health Monitoring System
Balamurugan Sanjeevirayar, M P Ajay · IWBBIO · 2013
Wireless technology has completely transformed the way we live, but health care is yet to enter the digital age at least at remote areas. By harnessing innovation in the wireless space along with cloud computing and pervasive technologies such as ubiquitous sensing and data analytics we can fundamentally shift the paradigm in health care delivery and dramatically improve the health care services at rural areas. Ultimately, we have the opportunity to create a new infrastructure-independence model of health care, which translates into the right care, at the right time, wherever people need it. Also putting cloud computing with it makes the health data to be monitored at any comfortable places or devices. Wireless health encompasses end-to-end solutions that facilitate continuous access to health care information, expert advice, or therapeutic intervention enabled by remote sensing, ubiquitous telecommunications networks, and smart systems and platforms.
