본 논문에서는 다수의 생체계측 정보를 MDEC(Medical Device Exchange Communication) 기반의 공통모듈을 이용하여 중앙 집중 관리를 위한 CMS(Central Monitoring System)를 제안한다. 기존의 바이탈사인 모니터 등은 환자별로 부착되어 다수의 환자에 대한 이상 징후를 실시간으로 모니터링하기에는 어려움이 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 다수의 계측 장비를 통합하는 공통모듈인 MDEC을 이용하여 집중 모니터링이 가능한 CMS을 구현하였다. 계측장비와 MDEC의 패킷 송수신을 위한 프로토콜을 설계하고 네트워크로 전송된 패킷은 CMS에 표시되며 데이터베이스에 저장된다. 본 연구의 결과는 급속히 증가하는 병원내 환자 관리 및 효율적 의료서비스에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

Recently, various studies have been attempted to provide a biological information monitoring service through integrating with the web service. The medical information transmission standard ISO/IEEE 11073 PHD defines the optimized exchange protocol ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 based on the No-IP to exchange the biometric information between the ISO/IEEE 11073 agent and the manager. It's system structure based on the No-IP using ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 is not suitable for providing a remote biological information monitoring services. That is because it is difficult to provide to control and manage the biological information measurement devices, which have installed IP protocol stack at the remote. Furthermore, ACSE and CMDISE in ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 are not suitable to provide U-healthcare services based on IoT because they are complicated and difficult to implement it caused by the structural complexity. In order to solve the problems, in this paper, we propose the biological information monitoring architecture based on ISO/IEEE 11073 DIM/REST of IoT environment to provide the biological information monitoring service based on IoT. To do this, we designed biological information monitoring system architecture based on IoT and the message exchange protocol of ISO/IEEE 11073 DIM/REST between the ISO/IEEE 11073 agent and the ISO/IEEE 11073 manager. In order to verify the realistic possibility of the proposed system architecture, we developed the service prototype.

The personal bio-information supplied from the PHD(Personal Health Device) for personal health management is very sensitive in relation to a personal living body in an aspect of privacy protection. On the assumption thai the information is about a patient, it is more serious problem if it is revealed to a third party. However. the established ISO (International Organizations for Standardization) standard protocol[1] in October 2009 has just considered a transmission part for mutual exchange of bio-information between individuals, but has never actually considered security elements. Accordingly, this paper is to show all sorts of security threats according to personal health management in the u-health environment and security requirements newly.

This study aims to develop a mobile-based portable u-Health Monitoring System which provides a personal medical service on demand by processing patients' data intellectually achieved through sensing technique of non-restriction/non-consciousness oriented and deciding. To do this, we composed a USN-based portable monitoring unit. It is the one, that contains a somatometry sensor which is attached to patient's body and detects bio information, a portable wireless terminal which receives information from the sensor and transmits it to monitor server, and a monitor server which interprets received data through wireless network and processes. Also, it tries to develop a non-restriction /non-consciousness oriented sensing technique which is related to glycosuria and cardiovascular diseases.

Recently, owing to the development of ubiquitous, RFID and local area wireless communication technology, many studies on the system which can measure biomedical signals are being carried out. In this paper, we have designed and implemented an u-Healthcare system based on sensor network using biomedical signal measurement sensors such as ECG, blood pressure, and heartbeats. The biomedical signals from sensor nodes pass through the gateway and are finally transmitted to a healthcare renter. The acquired biomedical signals are processed in the healthcare center and the analyzed results are transmitted to the patients to improve patients' health using either kinesitherapy or dietary treatment.

Recently there are some trends to construct smart home system infrastructure depending upon the development of Information and Communication Technology. Also requirements of the Ubiquitous Healthcare Systems at home which can monitor the status of health continuously are increased rapidly comparing with hospitals. Healthcare service can be divided into two categories. The first one is Alarm Service that can be used for the emergency status and the other one is Remote Support Service which can monitor the patient including home environments and give those diagnosis information to medical office or to his family. Generally wired networks and fixed healthcare measuring system have some limits to transmit reliable realtime based information for both categories described above comparing with portable monitoring system. Getting over the inefficiency we will design and implement portable healthcare system under the wireless Zigbee network environments.

In this paper, we propose a mobile telemedicine system that acquires more easily and analyzes individual's bio-signal using PDA. It is not easy for modern people who live busily, disabled patients, or old people to visit hospital. The major goal of this study is to implement the mobile telemedicine systems that the captured bio-signal from remote hospital or other medical treatment device is transmitted via Bluetooth module in ubiquitous environment, PDA with built-in Bluetooth module receives its data and displays on the screen in various form. By implemented systems, it is possible to compare current bio-signal with historical bio-signal and analyze bio-signal, and it is able to make a self diagnosis and it is available to be examined and treated remote diagnosis by sending stored bio-signal to a medical doctor.

This paper suggests U-healthcare system for individual health management realizing the gateway, client, and Java-based network server by using the vital signal measuring system and android-based mobile platform. This study realized the vital signal measuring system based on the technology to measure the ECG, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, and respiration, etc. And all the information of measurement was transmitted to the mobile gateway using the 3-bite transmission protocol consisting of headers and data. The data transmitted to the mobile gateway was used to examine the mobile client's personal health indexes through the network server. This paper realized and tested the android-based gateway, client, and the broadcasting network server and verified their validity with simulations and actual humans. As a result, the U-healthcare system suggested was proved to be effective in managing each individual's health from short distance and long distance. And it could examine each individual's health conditions in real-time and was found to be advantageous in that it could secure the guardian's mobility.

Hypertension is one of the major causes of death in the world as it is related with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease, so it is needed to provide continuos management for blood pressure. This study selected Health Level 7 Fast Health Interoperability Resources (HL7 FHIR) as a bio-signal data exchange service model that can provide constant blood pressure management in the rapidly growing mobile health care environment. The HL7 FHIR framework developed communicates with the IEEE 11073-10407 Personal Health Device (PHD) protocol through the bluetooth Health Device Profile (HDP) between the manager (smart phone) and the agent (hemomanometer) and acquires information about blood pressure. According to the test results, it performed its tasks successfully including hypertension patients' blood pressure monitoring, management on measured records, generation of document, or transmission of measured information. Because in the actual, clinical environment, it is possible to transmit measured information through the TCP/IP protocol, it will be needed to conduct constant research on it and vitalize it in the field of mobile health care afterwards.
