How will the Internet of Things enable Augmented Personalized Health?
Internet-of-Things (IoT) is profoundly redefining the way we create, consume,
and share information. Health aficionados and citizens are increasingly using
IoT technologies to track their sleep, food intake, activity, vital body
signals, and other physiological observations. This is complemented by IoT
systems that continuously collect health-related data from the environment and
inside the living quarters. Together, these have created an opportunity for a
new generation of healthcare solutions. However, interpreting data to
understand an individual's health is challenging. It is usually necessary to
look at that individual's clinical record and behavioral information, as well
as social and environmental information affecting that individual. Interpreting
how well a patient is doing also requires looking at his adherence to
respective health objectives, application of relevant clinical knowledge and
the desired outcomes.
We resort to the vision of Augmented Personalized Healthcare (APH) to exploit
the extensive variety of relevant data and medical knowledge using Artificial
Intelligence (AI) techniques to extend and enhance human health to presents
various stages of augmented health management strategies: self-monitoring,
self-appraisal, self-management, intervention, and disease progress tracking
and prediction. kHealth technology, a specific incarnation of APH, and its
application to Asthma and other diseases are used to provide illustrations and
discuss alternatives for technology-assisted health management. Several
prominent efforts involving IoT and patient-generated health data (PGHD) with
respect converting multimodal data into actionable information (big data to
smart data) are also identified. Roles of three components in an evidence-based
semantic perception approach- Contextualization, Abstraction, and
Personalization are discussed
Horizons and Perspectives eHealth
EHealth platform represents the combined use of IT technologies and electronic communications in the health field, using data (electronically transmitted, stored and accessed) with a clinical, educational and administrative purpose, both locally and distantly. eHealth has the significant capability to increase the movement in the direction of services centered towards citizens, improving the quality of the medical act, integrating the application of Medical Informatics (Medical IT), Telemedicine, Health Telematics, Telehealth, Biomedical engineering and Bioinformatics. Supporting the creation, development and recognition of a specific eHealth zone, the European Union policies develop through its programs FP6 and FP7, European-scale projects in the medical information technologies (the electronic health cards, online medical care, medical web portals, trans-European nets for medical information, biotechnology, generic instruments and medical technologies for health, ICT mobile systems for remote monitoring). The medical applications like electronic health cards ePrescription, eServices, medical eLearning, eSupervision, eAdministration are integral part of what is the new medical branch-eHealth, being in a continuous expansion due to the support from the global political, financial and medical organizations; the degree of implementation of the eHealth platform varying according to the development level of the communication infrastructure, allocated funds, intensive political priorities and governmental organizations opened to the new IT challenges.eHealth, telemedicine, telehealth, bioinformatics, telematics
