In this paper the design and development of a low-cost homecare architecture for remote patient telemetry built upon a Java-based embedded computer is presented. The proposed architecture has been validated by experiencing real-time ECG monitoring by means of desktop PCs equipped with Web browsers, Personal Digital Assistants and WAP-enabled GSM/GPRS mobile phones. The modular approach followed in the development of the home station allows additional medical devices to be easily integrated to fulfil the requirements of heterogeneous homecare scenarios. We expect that the availability of such a low-cost telemedicine device will contribute to further extend healthcare reach to the homecare environment.

Abstract

In this paper the design and development of a low-cost homecare architecture for remote patient telemetry built upon a Java-based embedded computer is presented. The proposed architecture has been validated by experiencing real-time ECG monitoring by means of desktop PCs equipped with Web browsers, Personal Digital Assistants and WAP-enabled GSM/GPRS mobile phones. The modular approach followed in the development of the home station allows additional medical devices to be easily integrated to fulfil the requirements of heterogeneous homecare scenarios. We expect that the availability of such a low-cost telemedicine device will contribute to further extend healthcare reach to the homecare environment.
