Abstract :
It is widely accepted that healthcare providers are coming under increasing pressure to improve the quality of care delivered to patients. This comes at a time when there is a need to curtail healthcare spending fuelled by an increasing incidence of revenue sapping ageing populations, and an explosion of modern diseases such as obesity, diabetes, chronic heart failure etc. The healthcare delivery system will be forced to treat larger numbers of patient and resources will come under severe strain. This problem lessens the health care quality and its efficiency.
One of the possible methods for improvement of health care delivery and its quality is filtering unnecessary referrals. This can be achieved either by improving public health level (e.g. preventive medicine) or assigning a part of health checks to the members of the public (e.g. regular health checks). This Project is aiming to design, develop and implement a platform making it possible for people to play a greater role in maintaining their own health and letting them prevent unexpected health problems in a quick and easy way. In the same time this device could help to increase patients comfort level, reduce the number of check ups as in hospital and enhance the effectiveness of remedy by monitoring the healing progress.
