Sensor Technologies for AL Systems Integrated health monitoring and emergency call system • Regular monitoring in the home for patients or unhealthy people. • Healthy elderly people need certain monitoring in case of domestic accidents or illnesses. • Health monitoring: • Body temperature, blood pressure, pulse, etc. • Detection: • Early detection of health problems. • Domestic accidents like small scalds, fall, etc. • Benefits: • Elderly people feel safe and protected. • Peace of mind for relatives. • System easy to install and user-friendly.
Sensor Technologies for AL Systems Integrated health monitoring and emergency call system Medical-welfare and service provider level • guidelines and selection criteria for prescribing vital signs monitoring • organisation and guidelines for documentation of actions taken when rising temperature is detected • analysis and diagnosis of the causes behind the rising temperature • follow-up and assessment of results • simulation and description of probable result without monitoring and intervention • feed-back for evaluation and revision of guidelines and organisation • Acceptance analysis from psychological group and elderly people service providers, of a network like this. Technological level a) Sensor b) Sensor nodes c) Base station d) Decision maker
