Abordagem I3VSM: Acompanhamento Autônomo de Pacientes Explorando Ciência de Situação na IoT

Abstract

Mobility has become a daily practice of physicians, so it is possible that they remain periods of time without contact with the teams that support them in the treatment of patients. Longer periods between communications can cause delays in performing procedures, drug prescribing, etc. Considering this scenario, this work has as objective the conception an approach, called I3VSM, which integrates: (i) a platform for acquisition of vital signs, (ii) an environment for contextual processing, which through customizable rules builds the Situation Awareness of the patients; and (iii) a textual and graphic display interface for these signals, which can be accessed by IoT. As a source of vital signs, the MIMIC-III database is being used, which has been widely accepted by the international community for this purpose. In turn, for the evaluation of I3VSM together with health professionals, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used, and promising results were obtained.
