“…Systems used in remote health-care services have drawn considerable attention because of their importance in the lives of peoples [8], [9], [87], [88]. Regular monitoring of patients from a distance is ideal to ensure that they receive proper care and suitable guidelines for proper medication [10], [120], [121]. The concept behind telemedicine is to remotely supply medical services with the aid of telecommunication technologies [11], [89].…”

This paper proposes a smart real-time health monitoring structured for hospitals' distributor based on wearable health data sensors. Health data were received from multiple heterogeneous wearable sensors, such as electrocardiogram (ECG), oxygen saturation sensor (SpO2), blood pressure monitor, and non-sensory measurement (text frame), from 500 patients with different symptoms. Triage level and healthcare services were identified based on the new four-level remote triage and package localization (4LRTPL). The numbers of healthcare services that represent hospital status were collected from 12 hospitals located in Baghdad city. This study constructed a decision matrix based on the crossover of ''multi-healthcare services'' and ''hospital list'' within Tier 4. The hospitals were then ranked using multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques, namely, integrated analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and vlsekriterijumskaoptimizacija i kompromisnoresenje (VIKOR). Mean ± standard deviation was computed to ensure that the hospital ranking undergoes systematic ranking for objective validation. This research provided scenarios and checklist benchmarking to evaluate the proposed and existing health recommender frameworks. Results corroborated that: 1) the integration of AHP and VIKOR effectively solved hospital selection problems; 2) in the objective validation, significant differences were recognized between the scores of groups, indicating that the ranking results were identical; 3) in evaluation, the proposed framework exhibited an advantage over the benchmark framework with a percentage of 56.25%; and 4) hospitals with multiple healthcare services received the highest ranks, whereas hospitals with fewer healthcare services received low ranks.INDEX TERMS Real-time remote monitoring, hospital management, hospital selection, chronic heart, healthcare services, triage, wearable health sensor.

“…Remote prioritisation means triaging patients and identifying their priority for treatment and transportation to hospitals after the evaluation of their vital signs [41]. For remote patients, continuous monitoring from a distant hospital is highly desirable because it ensures adequate care and provides suitable guidelines for proper medication [42]. Moreover, remote patient care is currently becoming a major concern in healthcare services [43].…”

Real-Time Remote-Health Monitoring Systems: a Review on Patients Prioritisation for Multiple-Chronic Diseases, Taxonomy Analysis, Concerns and Solution Procedure

Remotely monitoring a patient's condition is a serious issue and must be addressed. Remote health monitoring systems (RHMS) in telemedicine refers to resources, strategies, methods and installations that enable doctors or other medical professionals to work remotely to consult, diagnose and treat patients. The goal of RHMS is to provide timely medical services at remote areas through telecommunication technologies. Through major advancements in technology, particularly in wireless networking, cloud computing and data storage, RHMS is becoming a feasible aspect of modern medicine. RHMS for the prioritisation of patients with multiple chronic diseases (MCDs) plays an important role in sustainably providing high-quality healthcare services. Further investigations are required to highlight the limitations of the prioritisation of patients with MCDs over a telemedicine environment. This study introduces a comprehensive and inclusive review on the prioritisation of patients with MCDs in telemedicine applications. Furthermore, it presents the challenges and open issues regarding patient prioritisation in telemedicine. The findings of this study are as follows: (1) The limitations and problems of existing patients' prioritisation with MCDs are presented and emphasised. (2) Based on the analysis of the academic literature, an accurate solution for remote prioritisation in a large scale of patients with MCDs was not presented. (3) There is an essential need to produce a new multiple-criteria decisionmaking theory to address the current problems in the prioritisation of patients with MCDs.

Continuous monitoring of patients from a remote hospital is highly desirable to take care of patients and providing suitable guidelines with proper medicine [4]. This paper includes heart rate variability as a new vital sign [5,6] with other existing parameters.…”

Part 5: Industrial Management and Other ApplicationsInternational audienceRemote care of patient is now becoming a subject of major concern in healthcare services. Proposed work describes a pervasive system to assist continuously the patients who are at remote place from the connected hospital using a priority based classification and assignment of nurses to the high risk patients. The challenge lies in storage and management of the vast amount of real-time data originating from heterogeneous sources under dynamic situations. This paper attempts to design a new system consisting of several modules for managing real-time heterogeneous data. The overwhelming data could cause difficulty to decide over numerous patients to whom the care should be given first and then onwards. To solve this, the proposed system attempts to derive fuzzy rules to make decision based on priority among selected groups in a dynamic environment. This proposed model formulates an indexed hash key for high risk patients and proper nurse relatively
