  3. The Growth of Healthcare • Changes in the circumstances of healthcare • Become an aging society • the 65 years old aged population will be doubled within 19 years • 60% of population will be over 50 years old in 2050 • Grow chronic disease patients • Hypertensive, Diabetic • High increasing in healthcare expense for the society • Enlarge a gap between public and private health service • Healthcare from treatment to prevention of a disease • healthcare is changed what treatments have to be provided to how to prevent a disease. • From what to do in medical institution to how to manage the quality of healthy life for a person • Healthcare is the activity to prevent from having a disease by managing the wellness of a person

  4. Changing Definition on Healthcare • Hospital Healthcare • Face to face medical service • Telemedicine • Digitalized and networked hospital • EMR(Electronic Medical Record), OCS(Order Communication System), PACS(Picture Archiving and Communication System) • e-Healthcare • Personalized hospital with Internet and mobile phone • Monitored bio-data, remote diagnosis • u-Healthcare • Any place, any time healthcare with wireless sensor networks • Continuous healthcare, customized healthcare, intelligent healthcare

  5. Analyzing Monitoring (Networking) Feedback u-Healthcare Actionable Health Information Sensing (Transmission) Health Data Analyzed Result Bio Signal • Measure bio signal • Convey bio data • Display bio data • Health data mining • Alerting • Prescription Source: ETRI, “Ubiquitous Life Care”, Aug. 2007

  7. Remote Patient Monitoring • Sensing • Wearable patient monitoring system • Electrocardiogram • Oxygen blood concentration • Heartbeat rate • Networking • In u-Hospital, silver-town, home • Centralized monitoring • Monitoring • Patient tracking : senile dementia • Alarming: cardiac infarction

  8. Silver Care • Sensing • Vitality • Activity in daily life • Sleeping hours • Bio data • Blood pressure & pulse • Glucose metering • Networking • In silver-town, living alone elderly • Centralized monitoring • Monitoring • Health data mining • Alerting

  9. Sensor Networking for u-Healthcare • Scalable multi-hop enabled network • Centralized monitoring • Multiple sensors per a person • Sensing from multiple persons • Deployed in hospital, silver-town, home • Fixed sensors and moving sensors • Fast association, mobility management • Overlapping differentiated networks • Home/building automation network plane • Light control, temperature control, … • Healthcare network plane • Urgent data relaying • Ordinary data relaying • MAC Requirements from the healthcare • Multiple grades of service quality • 15-08-0621-01-004e • Reliable multi-hop extension to the sink Healthcare network plane Automation network plane sensor for building automation sink for building automation sensor for healthcare sink for healthcare
