  • Pervasive Health Monitoring
    ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, 2012
    Co-Authors: Reza Naima, John F. Canny
    Abstract:

    Pervasive health monitoring is the application of non-invasive ambulatory monitoring technologies towards continuous physiologic monitoring. These technologies can be used for the detection of sudden, acute, health problems and the management of chronic disease. For people at risk for specific incidents, such as a heart attack in an individual with heart disease or a fall from an elderly individual, being able to detect a potentially life threatening incident and alerting a care provider can mean the difference between life and death. Likewise, individuals who have chronic health conditions, such as congestive heart failure, can benefit from tracking the progress of their disease. Feedback provided from an ambulatory monitor can be used to help manage the treatment of the disease with the goal of keeping the individual out of the hospital. Currently, people wait until a health problem manifests itself in a way which necessitates a visit to a doctor or a hospital. This type of management is the antithesis of early detection. Often, many conditions have simpler, more effective, and less costly treatments if detected and diagnosed at an early stage. Not only does this result in a better quality of life, but can help to by reducing the costs to the healthcare system. In 2010, U.S. healthcare costs were $2.6 trillion, and it is expected to grow to an incredible $4.6 trillion by 2020. In order to enable a wide range of pervasive monitoring applications, a highly integrated ambulatory physiologic monitor was developed and used in a number of studies. The hardware platform is called The Berkeley Tricorder, and is capable of acquiring a high resolution data from a number of physiologic sensors including an electrocardiograph, an electromyography, a photoplethysmograph, a bioimpedance spectrometer, and an accelerometer. In addition, The Berkeley Tricorder is capable of storing data on an SD memory card, or transmitting it wirelessly over Bluetooth to a local target, or to a remote target using the dial-up-networking Bluetooth profile and a mobile phone. The latest version of the hardware measures 1.4"x1.85". The first chapter explores a number of acute and chronic health conditions to better understand which physiologic monitors are of the most value in an ambulatory system. Next, the physiologic basis of the biosignals are examined, along with the technology which enables their measurement. Based on the methodology used to measure the biosignals, a detailed set of requirements for the implementation of the ambulatory monitor is derived. The requirements are then translated into a physical implementation along with a set of lessons learned along the way. The hardware is then examined to see how it compares to the original design and to quantify its signal quality. Finally, a study used to explore the physiology of stress is using the ambulatory monitor is discussed.

  • the berkeley Tricorder wireless health monitoring
    Wireless Health, 2010
    Co-Authors: Reza Naima, John F. Canny
    Abstract:

    The advancement of precision micropower amplifiers, microcontrollers, and MEMs devices have allowed for a paradigm shift from traditionally large and costly health monitoring equipment only found in hospitals or care centers to smaller, wireless, low powered portable devices that can provide continuous monitoring for a number of applications. Along these lines, we have developed a small wireless health monitoring device, named The Berkeley Tricorder, capable of monitoring a wide range of health-related signals, and have vetted it in a number of human trials. We will present a number of different real-time visualization tools that have been developed, and discuss some relevant applications for the Tricorder as a platform. Real time wireless telemetry from the device will be demonstrated.

  • the berkeley Tricorder ambulatory health monitoring
    Wearable and Implantable Body Sensor Networks, 2009
    Co-Authors: Reza Naima, John F. Canny
    Abstract:

    We developed and tested the Berkeley Tricorder, a health monitoring device capable of measuring a subject's ECG, EMG, Blood Oxygenation, Respiration (via Bioimpedance), and motion--almost equivalent to the feature set of a hospital bedside patient monitor. Our focus has been a highly integrated design incorporating the radio and all associated circuitry on a single PCB. The device stores data locally on microSD flash and/or transmits via Bluetooth. We will also discuss a strap we have developed which utilizes reusable electrodes for data acquisition as well as a desktop and mobile application for real-time data telemetry. We have evaluated the efficacy of the device in recording ambulatory data from 24 subjects and found the data acquisition relatively free of motion artifacts.

    Abstract:

    To address lifestyle-related cardiovascular diseases and metabolic disorders, self-care actions of the patient are needed. This chapter shows how mobile technology can support patients to take care of their personal health. We present a three-dimensional map to categorise diseases according to their burden of disease, their self-care relevance and the technological readiness of supporting technology.

  • AMCIS - Towards a Medical Tricorder: Defining medical conditions for consumer self-care with focus on non-invasive technologies
    2017
    Co-Authors: Andreas Hamper, Lucas Neitzel, Nilmini Wickramasinghe, Isabella Eigner, Freimut Bodendorf
    Abstract:

    Health and fitness applications, fitness trackers and wearables show particularly high, sustained demand among private consumers. Highly efficient and cost-effective digital consumer electronic sensor technologies can also be used for medical purposes. Non-invasive technologies offer capabilities in the detection, measurement, and analysis of medical conditions carried out by private consumers. This paper investigates the technological readiness of consumer electronics for the measurement of vital signs, cardiovascular / metabolic and infectious diseases and shows how these technologies can promote self-care of consumers. We propose a 3-dimensional framework which characterizes diseases according to their burden of disease, their potential for self-care and the readiness of enabling technologies in consumer devices. With the evaluation of current technologies we show that a growing number of medical conditions, especially lifestyle-related cardiovascular diseases, can be identified and monitored easily, precisely and non-invasively by consumers. Consumer electronic technologies can no longer be seen only as a complementary element besides professional medical procedures but are increasingly able to provide medical diagnoses and monitor diseases without medical examination. Based on a 3D-self-care framework we propose strategies for three target groups: Consumers should focus on lifestyle-related diseases, healthcare payers should focus on research funding for technologies addressing high burden diseases and technology developers should focus on diseases that can be supported by close-to-market technology.
