The new paradigm of e-Health demands open sensors and middleware components that permit transparent integration and end-to-end interoperability of new personal health devices. The use of standards seems to be the internationally adopted way to solve these problems. This paper presents the implementation of an end-to-end standards-based e-Health solution. This includes ISO/IEEE11073 standard for the...
Interoperability among medical devices and compute engines in the personal environment of the patient, and with healthcare information systems in the remote monitoring and management process is a key need that requires developments supported on standard-based design. Even though there have been some international initiatives to combine different standards, the vision of an entire end-to-end standard-based...
There is a need to develop open sensors and middleware components that allow transparent integration and plug-and-play interoperability of Medical Devices (MDs) and Computer Engines (CEs). The use of standards seems to be the internationally adopted way to solve these problems and allow implementing ubiquitous solutions, including wearable devices, focused on the new paradigm of Personal Health (p-Health)...
Electronic healthcare records promise to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare systems, but also introduce new risks to the security and privacy of healthcare information. In this paper, we outline how digital rights management can be used to protect health information transmitted throughout a distributed healthcare system. Our proposal allows for information to be disclosed on a...
Clinical guidelines are developed to assist healthcare practitioners to make decisions on patient's medical problems, and as such they communicate with external applications to retrieve patient data to initiate medical actions through clinical workflows, and transmit information to alert/reminder systems. The interoperability problems in the healthcare information technology domain prevent wider deployment...
Paper-based folders have been widely used to coordinate cares in medical-social networks, but they introduce some burning issues (e.g. privacy protection, remote access to the folder). Replacing the paper-based folder system by a traditional Electronic Healthcare Record (EHR) introduces new drawbacks: forcing of the patient consent, unbounded data retention, no security guarantee outside the server...
