Abstract

This work carries out a technical survey about the technologies available for wireless communication of personal clinical devices. The technologies considered are the most extended Internet of Things technologies, they have different purposes and features in order to cover the gaps required to reach a Internet of Things ecosystem, where the clinical devices will be powered with new characteristics such as communications, alerts, analysis, and remote monitoring. These technologies are 6LoWPAN/IEEE 802.15.4, Bluetooth Low Energy (BT-LE), and Near Field Communication (NFC). Each one of these technologies has a function in the context of mhealth and eHealth. NFC is used by a patient to access their current health. BL-LE can be used to gather information from the same room, environment and pathology. And finally 6LoWPAN can be used to check the status of several rooms and even around the hospital by any IPv6 device. This work analyzes each one of the technologies and defines when each technology is more suitable.

临床环境物联网技术调查

本文对个人临床设备的无线通信技术进行了技术调查。所考虑的技术是最广泛的物联网技术，它们具有不同的目的和功能，以覆盖达到物联网生态系统所需的空白，其中临床设备将具有通信，警报，分析和远程监控等新特性。这些技术是6LoWPAN/IEEE 802.15.4，蓝牙低功耗(BT-LE)和近场通信(NFC)。这些技术中的每一种都在移动医疗和电子医疗的背景下发挥作用。病人使用近距离通信来了解他们目前的健康状况。BL-LE可用于收集同一房间、环境和病理的信息。最后，6LoWPAN可以通过任何IPv6设备来检查几个房间甚至医院周围的状态。这项工作分析了每一种技术，并定义了每种技术何时更适合。
