Progress in information and communication technologies (ICT) is providing new opportunities for pervasive health care services in aging societies.
To identify starting points of health-enabling technologies for pervasive health care. To describe typical services of and contemporary ICT architecture paradigms for pervasive health care.
Summarizing outcomes of literature analyses and results from own research projects in this field.
Basic functions for pervasive health care with respect to home care comprise emergency detection and alarm, disease management, as well as health status feedback and advice. These functions are complemented by optional (non-health care) functions. Four major paradigms for contemporary ICT architectures are person-centered ICT architectures, home-centered ICT architectures, telehealth service-centered ICT architectures and health care institution-centered ICT architectures.
Health-enabling technologies may lead to both new ways of living and new ways of health care. Both ways are interwoven. This has to be considered for appropriate ICT architectures of sensor-enhanced health information systems. IMIA, the International Medical Informatics Association, may be an appropriate forum for interdisciplinary research exchange on health-enabling technologies for pervasive health care.
信息通信技术(ICT)的进步为老龄化社会的普及型医疗服务提供了新机遇。
确定普及型医疗中促进健康技术的起点。描述普及型医疗的典型服务以及当代ICT架构范式。
总结文献分析结果以及该领域自身研究项目的成果。
居家护理方面普及型医疗的基本功能包括紧急情况检测与报警、疾病管理以及健康状况反馈与建议。这些功能由可选(非医疗)功能补充。当代ICT架构的四大主要范式为人中心ICT架构、家庭中心ICT架构、远程医疗服务中心ICT架构以及医疗机构中心ICT架构。
促进健康的技术可能带来新的生活方式和新的医疗方式。这两种方式相互交织。在设计传感器增强型健康信息系统的适当ICT架构时必须考虑到这一点。国际医学信息学协会(IMIA)可能是就普及型医疗的促进健康技术进行跨学科研究交流的合适论坛。
