Personal networks enabling remote assistance for medical emergency teams

Personal Networks provide the technology that is needed to interconnect the various private networks of a single user (home network, car network, office network, Personal Area Network, and others) seamlessly, at any time and at any place. This can be useful in many business sectors. In case of medical emergencies, it can provide a means to enlist remote assistance from peers wherever they are in the world at that particular moment. To illustrate this, we have analyzed the use case of a medical emergency surgery and have built a demonstrator.
