Advanced Sensors for Smart Healthcare

Data from sensor networks via the smart hospital framework is comprised of three main layers: data, insight and access. Medical data is collected in real-time from an array of intelligent devices/systems deployed within the hospital. This data offers insight from the analytics or machine learning software that is accessible to healthcare staff via a smartphone or mobile device to facilitate swifter decisions and greater efficiency. Advanced Sensors for Smart Healthcare shows how the use of sensors to gather data on a patient's condition and the environment in which their care takes place can allow healthcare professionals to monitor their well-being and make informed decisions about their treatment. Written by experts in the field, Advanced Sensors for Smart Healthcare, sits alongside companion volume, Sensor Networks for Smart Hospitals, and is an invaluable resource for researchers and healthcare practitioners in their drive to use technology to improve the lives of patients.
