  • With the recent trends and the adaptation of further advancement in personal healthcare system leads to develop some application which can work independent and user can operate that application without much interference of physician or any specialist user. To meet these needs, this paper proposes and implements a progressive architecture for the personal healthcare information system. This new architecture will not only play the role of middleware but also provide a analysis tool to process that different sensor data which is collected from different sensors implemented on patient body and environment. After collecting that data, with the help of various developed applications this data can be convert into useful information which will be stored in application server for further use and research. These features can be enabled by simple and effortless interactions of normal users and act autonomously to support their activities. This proposed personal healthcare architecture will also provide analysis report to the doctors and patient or various users for further instructions. The analysis report consists of healthcare data analysis results and history of patients. We are considering healthcare data like ECG, which is an important aspect for basic healthcare need.

  • Recently, The medical services make use mobile healthcare system to transmit patient information on wireless environment. But It is difficult to satisfied for specified patient to send message, and it's not sufficient healthcare system to help regular treatment for example a diabetic or a pregnant woman. Thus, this paper proposes an healthcare scheduling application which manages a pregnant woman pregnant-checking, fetal movement sensing, antenatal training and promotion of health information using networking, data transmission method and application framwork of WPAN concepts.

  • Various kind of ubiquitous healthcare services have been developed and tried in patient care and health care fields. Due to technical restrictions and not enough application practices, the service systems have been developed somewhat in ad hoc way. This paper describes the requirements for ubiquitous healthcare service systems most of which need to have and presents a ubiquitous healthcare service system architecture with which various ubiquitous healthcare services can be developed. It also introduces an application system for ubiquitous benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) patient care which has been developed based on the architecture.

  • This study aims to evaluate patients' satisfaction with healthcare services in Hawtat Bani Tamim Governorate during the spread of coronavirus. The importance of this study stems from the fact that Covid-19 is challenging countries all over the world. The study adopted a questionnaire for collecting the data. The sample size reached 231 members. The study applied descriptive statistics and inferential statistical methods to obtain the result of the study. The analysis of the data revealed that most of the participants are satisfied with the healthcare services in hospitals and health centers during the Corona pandemic, Health precautions and distancing measures were applied appropriately, Vaccination against corona was available in health centers and easy to access, and rapid response of health care service providers to patients' requests. The participant's opinions showed that the application of Mawid is a suitable method to access healthcare services during Corona, the application is more efficient in providing the required healthcare services and facilitating their access to healthcare services. In addition, patient satisfaction with the "My health" application provided fast and convenient services during the Corona pandemic and provided medical consultations easily.

  • Big data analysis in healthcare research seems to be a necessary strategy for the convergence of sports science and technology in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The purpose of this study is to provide the basic review to secure the diversity of big data and healthcare convergence by discussing the concept, analysis method, and application examples of big data and by exploring the application. Text mining, data mining, opinion mining, process mining, cluster analysis, and social network analysis is currently used. Identifying high-risk factor for a certain condition, determining specific health determinants for diseases, monitoring bio signals, predicting diseases, providing training and treatments, and analyzing healthcare measurements would be possible via big data analysis. As a further work, the big data characteristics provide very appropriate basis to use promising software platforms for development of applications that can handle big data in healthcare and even more in sports science.

  • This paper presents a user authentication scheme for healthcare application using wireless medical sensor networks, where wireless medical sensors are used for patients monitoring. These medical sensors' sense the patient body data and transmit it to the professionals (e.g., doctors, nurses, and surgeons). Since, the data of an individual are highly vulnerable; it must ensures that patients medical vital signs are secure, and are not exposed to an unauthorized person. In this regards, we have proposed a user1 authentication scheme for healthcare application using medical sensor networks. The proposed scheme includes: a novel two-factor professionals authentication (user authentication), where the healthcare professionals are authenticated before access the patient's body data; a secure session key is establish between the patient sensor node and the professional at the end of user authentication. Furthermore, the analysis shows that the proposed scheme is safeguard to various practical attacks and achieves efficiency at low computation cost.

  • Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how healthcare is delivered worldwide and has affected the environment of the healthcare. Physical therapy in traditional healthcare systems can be difficult in unusual circumstances, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Tele-physical therapy, defined as "the delivery of the physical therapy at a distance using electronic information and telecommunication technologies," will be a solution for this healthcare crisis. Thus, in this study, we proposed a mobile application for tele-physical therapy. Methods: This study used the Chrome Browser version 83.0.4 based on the Windows 10 64Bit operating system to use the App Inventor. To operate the mobile application, we used the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. The design of the mobile application was based on the review of a system used in the physical therapy department. Results: The graphical user interface (GUI) of the mobile application was displayed on three screens: selecting a painful joint (1st screen of the GUI); selecting a painful movement of the joint (2nd screen of the GUI); a self-manual therapy method and movie (3rd screen of the GUI). The proposed mobile application showed the stable repeatability of the self-manual therapy movie. Conclusion: The results of this study demonstrated that the proposed mobile application using the App Inventor for android will be able to create easy to use and reliable tele-physical therapy.

  • u-Healthcare 활성화의 필요성이 꾸준히 제시되어 왔으나, 아직까지 이해자들의 공감대를 이끌어 낼 수 있는 개념정립 및 분류체계가 미비한 실정이다. 새로운 서비스 영역인 u-Healthcare 분야 산업 발전을 위해서는 정책적 전략과 제도적 정비 등의 기반조성이 필요하며, 이에 앞서 명확한 개념 정의와 영역 범주화의 필요성이 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 ubiquitous computing 속성에 대한 이해를 통해 u-Health 환경과 u-Healthcare를 정의하며, 보건의료적 접근에 의한 분류를 통해 보건의료서비스에의 적용가능 분야를 제시하고자 한다.
