Network Services for Interaction of the Telemedicine System Users

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the problem of network interaction of users in telemedicine systems that are actively created and implemented in healthcare. For this, the analysis of network resources and services of telemedicine systems for various purposes and their capabilities are presented. A classification of such systems is proposed and the types of user interaction are described. The features of systems that implement monitoring of the health status of patients are considered. In such telemedicine systems, the decision on the patient's state can be made in different ways: under the supervision of the attending physician, on the basis of the analysis of controlled parameters (norm - pathology) or automated by a mathematical model describing the functioning of the human body. An example of the created telemedicine health monitoring system is given and the implementation of its basic services is considered. For this purpose, a diagram of system use cases is presented and the main functional processes occurring in the system are analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the remote interaction of users and the differentiation of their access rights, since the information collected in the system must be reliably protected. It is noted that the delimitation of user rights is carried out both by categories and by passwords. The scheme of the algorithm for distinguishing access rights is given.
