Abstract

A remote patient monitoring system is described. This system is to monitor information of multiple patients in ICU/CCU via 3G mobile phones. Conventionally, various patient information, such as vital signs, is collected and stored on patient information systems. In proposed system, the patient information is recollected by remote information server, and transported to mobile phones. The server is worked as a gateway between hospital intranet and public networks. Provided information from the server consists of graphs and text data. Doctors can browse patient's information on their mobile phones via the server. A custom Java application software is used to browse these data. In this study, the information server and Java application are developed, and communication between the server and mobile phone in model environment is confirmed. To apply this system to practical products of patient information systems is future work.
