Advances in mobile communications and medical technologies facilitate the development of emerging mobile systems and applications for healthcare. The objective of this paper is to provide an overview and the current status of mobile health care systems (mHealth) and their applications for Emergency healthcare support (eEmergency). Our paper reports on journal papers that use wireless, emergency telemedicine systems that appeared since 2000. The majority of the applications are focused on the transmission of crucial biosignals (mainly ECG) for the support of heart-related healthcare. A limited number of new studies were focused on supporting emergency healthcare for trauma by facilitating both 2D image or video transmission (eg: ultrasound). Alternatively, new studies have focused on integrated systems for specialized emergency scenaria such as stroke. This paper is an extension of work previously published by our group [1].
移动通信和医疗技术的进步推动了新兴移动医疗系统及应用的发展。本文旨在概述移动医疗系统(mHealth)及其在紧急医疗支持(eEmergency)方面的应用现状。我们的论文报道了自2000年以来出现的使用无线紧急远程医疗系统的期刊论文。大多数应用集中于传输关键生物信号(主要是心电图)以支持心脏相关医疗保健。少数新研究专注于通过促进二维图像或视频传输(如超声)来支持创伤紧急医疗。另外,新研究聚焦于针对中风等特殊紧急情况的集成系统。本文是我们团队之前发表的工作[1]的扩展。
