1 Internet of Things in Healthcare Monitoring Ivan Ostojic

2 Presentation Structure Setting the stage How can IOT be used in healthcare? Healthcare landscape is changing and creating new opportunities What is out there? Examples of different IOT applications Beyond dthe clinical i l cure New emerging paradigm driven di by IOT Own concept expanding the scope of IOT in health monitoring What are the problems in drug development? How to solve them? IOT as a bridge between information and physical world Outlook Challenges Next steps 2

3 Healthcare Landscape is Changing Populations are aging Obesity is growing Poor diet Sedentary lifestyle Source:obel.ee.uwa.edu.au/OFS-19/technical_programme/ofs19_burdett.pdf HIGHER FREQUENCY AND EARLIER ONSET OF CHRONIC DESEASES 3

4 HealthcareIn Numbers Challenges andopportunities Worldwide today 1 billion adults overweight 860 million chronic disease patients t 600 million people aged 60 or over 75 80% of healthcare spending is on chronic disease management 200K hospitals, 18M hospital beds Massivegrowth market for new systems which improve productivity, cut costs and support the shift of healthcare from hospital to the home Source:obel.ee.uwa.edu.au/OFS-19/technical_programme/ofs19_burdett.pdf 4

5 Wireless Body Sensors Are Part of The Solution Wireless Body Sensors Are Part of The Solution Source:obel.ee.uwa.edu.au/OFS 19/technical_programme/ofs19_burdett.pdf Dienstag, 18. Mai 2010 IOT in Healthcare Monitoring 5

6 The Technical Challenge is How to Move From Simplei l Reliable Affordable Safe 6

7 Wireless Sensors Monitor Magnitude of Disease Conditions Various sensors for various conditions Example ICP sensor: Short or long term monitoring of pressure in the brain cavity Implanted in the brain cavity and senses the increase of pressure Sensor and associated electronics encapsulated in safe and biodegradable material External RF reader powers the unit and receives the signal Stability over 30 days so far 7

8 Wireless Sensors Monitor Patients Behavior Monitoring of different diets trough food intake Various solutions are possible Example : Microphone implanted in the external earphones Sense different food types according to the sound Excellent results more than 80% accuracy Allows for routine classification of the food J_IEEEPervComput.pdf 8

9 Wireless Sensors Monitor Personal Stress Levels and Provide Release Mobile health hart Just in time therapy Changes in heart rate variability trigger mobile therapies Monitoring recalibrates by sensing and tracking usage of mobile therapies Contextual sensing (location, calendar integration) and 24h sampling Personalized therapies 9

10 Beyond Clinical Cure: The Preventive Healthcare & Continuous Multiparameter Monitoring 10

11 Beyond Clinical Cure: The Preventive Healthcare & Continuous Multiparameter Monitoring 11

12 Beyond Clinical Cure: Using IOT to Monitor Effects of Different Therapies 12

13 CONCEPT: Using Healthcare Monitoring to Improve Drug Discovery and Development + Ubiquitous multiparameter monitoring can provide high quality information 13

14 Beyond Clinical Cure: Improving The Products Delivered to The Patient One size fits all is not the most effective strategy 14

15 Beyond Clinical Cure: Improving The Products Delivered to The Patient One size fits all is not the most effective strategy Personalized drug development trough personalized information 15

16 Large Inefficiencies Are Part of Drug Development Process Drug discovery takes too long and costs too much Bottleneck of the process are drug testing and clinical trials 16

17 Healthcare Monitoring With Wireless Sensors Can Be Part of The Solution De monopolizing clinical trials + Personalized information for personalized development Routine innovation Improving computer models for drug simulations 17

18 Concept Realization Diagram 18
