Empowerment of Patients with Hypertension through BPM, IoT and Remote Sensing

Abstract: Hypertension affects one in five adults worldwide. Healthcare processes require interdisciplinary cooperation and coordination between medical teams, clinical processes, and patients. The lack of patients’ empowerment and adherence to treatment makes necessary to integrate patients, data collecting devices and clinical processes. For this reason, in this paper we propose a model based on Business Process Management paradigm, together with a group of technologies, techniques and IT principles which increase the… Show more

“…It also utilizes the concept of gamification to drive user engagement with immediate personalized feedback, reward systems to maximize user interaction, positive reinforcement, progress reports, medication adherence and weight control promoting ownership of care. In [52], the authors discussed the importance of wearable devices in patient empowerment to ensure participation and decision-making in his health journey. Models with top-down approaches have been discussed to help achieve the objectives of a peoplefriendly cost-effective system.…”

“…resource awareness, interoperability). The link between BPM and IoT is also widely used in health-care sectors, and it is seen as a means to assist patient with any chronic diseases such as hypertension [16]. This synergy between BPM and IoT is used to identify weaknesses in the interdisciplinary health-care processes in order to redesign those processes in a way that ensure a real-time and direct interaction between the patient and the medical staff.…”
