Abstract

Abstract Acquisition of medical data such as blood pressure, ECG, pulse, and other values is currently often carried out in doctor’s offices by physicians or medical staff. This requires valuable time of patients as well as of practices’ personel and can deliver specific data only of the time of the visit. In this paper we describe a different approach. Patients measure their biomedical vital data at home. Therefore a technical infrastructure together with a workflow were developed and applied within a current project with patients in a rural area. Vital data is transferred via smartphone apps to a cloud environment where doctors can easily access and assess the data.
