IMPROVEMENTS OF THE PERSONAL HEALTH DATA IDENTIFICATOR APPLYING STANDARDIZED DATA TRANSFER AND RFID TECHNOLOGY FOR PERSONALIZED TELEHEALTH SERVICES

This paper shows the improvements and outcomes reached by the development of a wrist wearable device called "Personal Health Data Identifier (PHDI)" which is the successor system of last year's project achievement called " Health Data Hub (HDH)". The main goal of this project is the identification of data streams in telemonitoring usecases in multiuser environments. The PHDI fulfils this by delivering the user's id to the data streams sent by PHDs using a separate data transmission utilizing RFID and ANT+technologies. An Android Tablet acts as the application hosting device (AHD) and further relays data from the Personal Healthcare Devices (PHD) and the PHDI to the server. The identified measurement data is then fed into the user's electronic health record utilizing appropriate IHE profiles. The PHDI is equipped with a specialized voice output feature for communication with the PHDI-User.
