“…«Body Area Networks» μας ενδιαφέρουν δύο τρόποι επικοινωνίας, αυτός ανάμεσα στους αισθητήρες και τον κεντρικό κόμβο επεξεργασίας/monitor και εκείνος ανάμεσα στον δίκτυο αισθητήρων και στο ιατρικό κέντρο ή θεράποντα ιατρό. 4 Το "Glucowatch" είναι η πρώτη από τις τρεις της κατηγορίας των ελάχιστα επεμβατικών συστηµάτων παρακολούθησης γλυκόζης. ∆εν ενδείκνυται για αντικατάσταση των υπαρχόντων µετρητών, αλλά για ταυτόχρονη χρήση µε αυτούς, και συνιστάται µόνο σε ενήλικες.…”

Chronic diseases represent the major expense in healthcare today. Examples include diabetes, asthma, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), dementia, arthritis, and a number of neurological disorders. The World Health Organization estimates that chronic diseases are the main cause of "disability" in 2020 and that, if not managed properly, will become the most expensive problem for healthcare systems .One of the main goals of modern health care is to ensure that patients with chronic and non-diseases (such as diabetes and COPD), will receive medical monitoring and care at home whenever possible. This would result in lower requirements in necessary sources of health care, in hospital coverage and allow for more targeted delivery of health and care services. Therefore the problem we face is the reliable, easy and fast collection of medical data, i.e. the state of health of an individual. The development of sensor technology, in hardware and software, but also the communication protocols, has enabled wearable, ambient, implantable sensors to be introduced into health service systems. Ideally, this would permit the monitoring of physiological parameters of the patient continuously in contrast to provide a "snapshot" of these parameters when the patient visits the physician or performing some tests.This paper seeks to investigate and analyze simple glucose, pressure, oxygen, and more complex sensor systems available on the market or at research level and to review the communication protocols used in these applications, with particular emphasis on emerging bioethics.

“…Sensor systems mounted on the person are becoming pervasive in modern research, covering anything from simple sensors to complete biomedical systems for monitoring astronauts during extra-vehicular activity (Fei et al, 2010). Obviously, as all humans are contextuallydifferent, such systems should be contextually-aware in order for their data to be properly interpreted (Domingo, 2012).…”

Society is experiencing an ageing demographic, coupled with increasing prevalence of Alzheimer's and Dementia conditions, expected to cause explosive increases in healthcare costs. Therefore, there is currently a need to develop pervasive technologies that allow monitoring of patients at home, where medically permissible, in order to reduce pressures on formal healthcare spaces. Those 'smart care spaces' require use of sensors and intelligent computer systems in order to support the needs of the cared-for, carers and medical personnel. In so doing they can ensure quality-of-life through comfort and adequate medical-monitoring, as well as providing significant data for ongoing medical evaluation and diagnosis. This requires two main elements of sensing: sensors to monitor the care environment and patient-mounted sensors to monitor physiological parameters. Therefore, this paper considers technological options available for such monitoring and provides examples of their use. It will be concluded that cost-effective solutions are available for development of smart care space monitoring, to help ensure that associated computer systems maintain an appropriate level of intelligence.
