Treatment of hyperglycemia in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated improved maternal and neonatal outcomes requires intensive clinical input. This currently achieved by hospital clinic attendance every 2 to 4 weeks limited opportunity for intervention between these visits.We conducted a randomized controlled trial determine whether the use mobile phone-based real-time blood glucose management system manage GDM remotely was as effective controlling standard care...
Independent component analysis (ICA) is a technique which extracts statistically independent components from set of measured signals. The enjoys numerous applications in biomedical signal the literature, especially electromagnetic (EM) brain Standard implementations ICA are restrictive mainly due to square mixing assumption-for recordings have large numbers channels, number resulting extracted sources makes subsequent laborious and highly subjective. There many instances neurophysiological...
Background: The increase in gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is challenging maternity services. We have developed an interactive, smartphone-based, remote blood glucose (BG) monitoring system, GDm-health. Aims: objective was to determine women’s satisfaction with using the GDm-health system and their attitudes toward care. Methods: In a service development program involving 52 pregnant women (September 2012 June 2013), BG monitored from diagnosis until delivery. Following birth, completed...
Recent telehealth studies have demonstrated minor impact on patients affected by long-term conditions. The use of technology does not guarantee the compliance required for sustained collection high-quality symptom and physiological data. Remote monitoring alone is sufficient successful disease management. A patient-centred design approach needed in order to allow personalisation interventions encourage completion daily self-management tasks. digital health system was designed support...
OBJECTIVE—To determine whether a system of telemedicine support can improve glycemic control in type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS—A 9-month randomized trial compared glucose self-monitoring real-time result transmission and feedback results for the previous 24 h group with graphical phone-based 2 weeks together nurse-initiated using web-based analysis intervention group. All patients aged 18–30 years HbA1c (A1C) levels 8–11% were eligible inclusion. RESULTS—A total 93 (55 men)...
Telemedicine systems have been proposed as a means of supporting people with diabetes in the self-management their condition. Requirements for monitoring parameters care, including glycaemic control, extent analysis and interpretation data, patient_clinician contacts, involvement multidisciplinary care team effective communication, can be addressed by telemedicine systems. We describe development implementation an innovative real-time system based around transmission feedback data to from...
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is defined as new onset or recognition of glucose intolerance in pregnancy. Evidence supports tight blood regulation to prevent adverse maternal and fetal outcomes. Finger-prick (BG) testing with frequent clinic review remains the most common method managing The prevalence GDM rising globally, pressuring resource-limited services. Objectives: We have developed an intuitive, interactive, reliable, accurate management system record BG...
Background All patients admitted to an acute inpatient mental health unit must have nursing observations carried out at night either hourly or every 15 minutes, ascertain that they are safe and breathing. However, while this practice ensures patient safety, it can also disturb patients’ sleep, which in turn impact negatively on their recovery. Objective This article describes the process of introducing artificial intelligence (‘digitally assisted observations’) ward, enable staff carry...
Prolonged non-contact camera-based monitoring in critically ill patients presents unique challenges, but may facilitate safe recovery. A study was designed to evaluate the feasibility of introducing a video camera system into an acute clinical setting. We assessed accuracy and robustness camera-derived estimates vital signs against electronically-recorded reference values both day night environments. demonstrated heart rate respiratory for extended periods time 15 post-operative patients....
Telehealth-supported clinical interventions may improve diabetes self-management. We explored the feasibility of stepwise self-titration oral glucose-lowering medication guided by a mobile telephone-based telehealth platform for improving glycemic control in type 2 diabetes.We recruited 14 patients to one-year study with 1:1 randomization. Intervention group followed treatment plan titration self-monitoring glycemia using real-time graphical feedback on telephone and remote nurse monitoring...
Colorectal cancer is a major health problem in developed countries, accounting for significant proportion of deaths the population. Advances chemotherapy treatment have led to therapy being delivered home-setting, which presents challenges ensuring that treatment-related side-effects are detected and reported clinical staff an appropriate time-frame. A telemedicine system has been using mobile-phone platform allow patients complete symptom diaries trigger alerts paged their nurse event...
Introduction The prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is rising in the UK. Good glycaemic control improves maternal and neonatal outcomes. Frequent clinical review patients with GDM by healthcare professionals required owing to rapidly changing physiology pregnancy its unpredictable course. Novel technologies that allow home blood glucose (BG) monitoring results transmitted real time a professional have potential deliver good-quality women more conveniently at lower cost patient...
Conventional sleep monitoring is time-consuming, expensive and uncomfortable, requiring a large number of contact sensors to be attached the patient. Video data commonly recorded as part laboratory assessment. If accurate staging could achieved solely from video, this would overcome many problems traditional methods. In work we use heart rate, breathing rate activity measures, all derived near-infrared video camera, perform stage classification. We deep transfer learning approach scarcity,...
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive chronic disease, predicted to become the third leading cause of death by 2030. COPD patients are at risk sudden and acute worsening symptoms, reducing patient's quality life hospitalization. We present results pilot study with 18 using an m-Health system, based on tablet computer pulse oximeter, for period six months. For prioritizing clinical review, data-driven approach has been developed which generates personalized alerts...
Successful adoption of novel noncontact physiological measurement and physical monitoring requires analysis how they support patient care. We review available technologies present our vision-based management system, supported by a framework enabling its integration within clinical workflows. The links tasks such as assessing patients to elements the journey (eg, risk factors early warning signs). system enabled insights from activity reports vital sign measurements. It supports staff in...
Introduction Successive confidential enquiries into maternal deaths in the UK have identified an urgent need to develop a national early warning score (EWS) specifically for pregnant or recently women aid more timely recognition, referral and treatment of who are developing life-threatening complications pregnancy puerperium. Although many local EWS use obstetrics, most been developed heuristically. No current obstetric has defined thresholds at which alert should be triggered using...
© 2014 EURASIP. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a chronic disease predicted to become the third leading cause of death by 2030. Patients with COPD are at risk exacerbations in their symptoms, which have an adverse effect on quality life and may require emergency hospital admission. Using results pilot study m-Health system for self-management tele-monitoring, we demonstrate data-driven approach computing personalised alert thresholds prioritise patients clinical review....
Background : Patients in mental health services' seclusion require regular physical assessments to identify, prevent and manage clinical deterioration. Sometimes it may be unsafe or counter-therapeutic for staff enter the room, making challenging meet local standards assessments. Alternatives standard assessment models are required such circumstances assure high quality safe care. Aim The primary aim was improve of monitoring by accurate vital sign measurements more frequently available....
