Automatic Management of Tele-Interpretation Knowledge in a Wearable Diagnostic Device

  • Conference paper

Abstract

This paper presents the aspects of remote management of interpretation knowledge embedded in a wearable health monitor based on vital signs. Expected high autonomy of a wearable device and the reliable interpretation intelligence requiring computation power are opposite requisites. The presented concept of programmable recorder assumes high flexibility of the remote device, however only certain aspects of adaptation were implemented up to today. The device programmability is implemented on the software platform and applied to the processing and transmission functions with the aim of continuous optimization of resources use towards the best diagnosis quality. The prototype was designed as an ECG-oriented monitor, but the application of spread intelligence-based monitors extends beyond the traditional long term ECG recording and covers the area of exercise, emergency and elderly people surveillance in various combinations.
