Platform for Healthcare Promotion and Cardiovascular Disease Prevention
This study introduces an integrated healthcare platform for cardiovascular disease prevention, offering continuous remote monitoring and AI-driven analysis. It supports diverse care scenarios, from hospitals to personal devices, enhancing patient supervision and risk detection.
Area of Science:
- Biomedical Engineering
- Health Informatics
- Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
Background:
- Cardiovascular diseases necessitate continuous monitoring and early intervention strategies.
- Existing healthcare systems often lack integration and scalability for diverse point-of-care needs.
- The demand for secure, remote patient monitoring solutions is increasing.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present the hardware-software design and implementation of an open, integrated, and scalable healthcare platform.
- To enable multiple point-of-care scenarios for healthcare promotion and cardiovascular disease prevention.
- To provide a secure, end-to-end solution for remote patient monitoring and health supervision.
Main Methods:
- Development of an open, integrated, and scalable hardware-software healthcare platform.
- Integration of biomedical data from various health-point cares.
- Implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) and deep-learning algorithms for data analysis.
- Incorporation of cybersecurity measures for secure data transmission and storage.
Main Results:
- The platform facilitates continuous patient monitoring and extended device integration.
- AI-driven analysis of integrated biomedical data aids in cardiovascular risk detection.
- The system supports remote supervision by doctors, hospital triage, and personal self-care.
- The architecture enables epidemiological profiling and intervention strategy implementation.
Conclusions:
- The developed platform is a robust tool for cardiovascular disease prevention and healthcare promotion.
- Its integrated and scalable design supports diverse point-of-care applications.
- The use of AI and secure architecture ensures effective remote patient monitoring and risk assessment.
