Due to the convergence between digital devices and the development of wireless communication technology, bit-signal sensor miniaturization, building an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) which is a digital version of a paper chart that contains all of a patient's medical history and the information of Electronic Health Record (EHR), Ubiquitous healthcare (u-Healthcare) that can monitor their health status and provide personal healthcare service anytime and anywhere. Also, the appearance of cloud computing technology is one of the factors that accelerate the development of u-healthcare service. However, if the individual information to be used maliciously during the u-healthcare service utilization, leads to serious problems directly related to the individual's life because if it goes beyond the level of simple health screening and treatment, it may not provide accurate and reliable healthcare services. For this reason, we analyzed a variety of security issues related to u-healthcare service in cloud computing environment and described about directions of secure health information sharing system construction. In addition, we suggest the future developmental direction for th activation of u-healthcare industry.

Health medical service is passes with u-Healthcare and it promote health medical service environment change to the citizen center in the hospital center, and all methods of diagnosis, treatment, after management are forecasted in prevention because a balance develops. It is necessary for an u-Healthcare terminal is devoted to becoming an ubiquitous terminal of consciousness when in where and the following technology to result in implementation. Information communication equipment and an appliance technical data transfer technology Precision and how mobile gateway implementation, Bluetooth wireless appliance function is various with mobile communication and radio communication network and an appliance function are necessary. therefore, in this paper, we did a study on the implementation of bio signal measuring system for the u-healthcare based on mobile.

Although seaman has made a contribution marine transportation and the marine products industry, the current status of preventing occupational disease by monitoring health danger factors is very unsatisfied. Therefore, a monitoring system regarding health condition and disease occurrence of seaman is required. In this paper, we propose a real-time sailor management system based on uniqutious healthcare, which collects various organic signals and analyzes their relation in order to confirm blood pressure, temperature and pulsation of seaman. The proposed system enables a medical doctor to manage the diseases anywhere at any time even via a PC and PDA.

현재 많은 사람들이 스마트폰을 이용하고 있으며 스마트폰을 활용한 IT 기술들이 나날이 발전하고 있다. 또한 스마트폰을 이용 하여 사람들이 생활하는데 있어서 더욱 더 편리한 생활을 할 수 있도록 서비스 환경을 제공해준다. 그 중 대표적인 기술이 U-Health(Ubiquitous-Health) 기술 이며 U-Health 기술은 건강증진과 고령화 사회를 대비하기 위한 효과적인 문제해결 방안으로 주목받고 있다. U-Health 서비스는 스마트폰의 각종 센서를 활용하여 환자의 건강 상태를 체크하고 실시간으로 업데이트 하여 환자의 상태를 더욱 효율적으로 관리할 수 있다. 그러나 환자와 병원 서버 간에 데이터 단일화, 통신문제 등으로 인해서 아직까지는 많이 활용되고 있지 않는 현실이다. 또한 스마트폰으로 인한 환자의 개인신상 정보가 쉽게 노출될 수 있다는 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 NFC(Near Field Communication) 기반에서 환자와 병원간에 신뢰성 있는 데이터 전송을 위한 인증 시스템을 설계 하였다.

e-Business in healthcare sector has been called e-Health, which is evolving into u-Health with advances of ubiquitous technologies. Seamless information sharing among health organizations is being discussed in many nations including USA, UK, Australia and Korea. Efforts for establishing the electronic health record (EHR) system and a nation-wide information sharing environment are called NHII (National Health Information Infrastructure) initiatives. With the advent of u-Health and progress of health information systems, information security issues in healthcare sector have become a very significant problem. In this paper, we analyze several issues on health information security occurring in u-Health environment and develop an information security standard for protecting health information. It is expected that the standard proposed in this work could be established as a national standard after sufficient reviews by information security experts, stakeholders in healthcare sector, and health professionals. Health organizations can establish comprehensive information security systems and protect health information more effectively using the standard. The result of this paper also contributes to relieving worries about privacy and security of individually identifiable health information brought by NHII implementation and u-Health systems.

This paper provides a review of the electrical sensing biosensors and examine research cases of biosensors based on clothing and textiels. A biosensor which can measure bio-signals is a device that senses the physical and chemical characteristics of biological materials by using biological sensing materials. Therefore, wellness wear that is closely integrated with the user's real life will play an important role in achieving U-Health. The biosensors' unique feature which can be differentiated from the existing sensors is it's using of selective reactions and binding of biological substances. The electrical sensing biosensors are very small in size due to the processing of electrical signals, which can be used to create ubiquitous. Therefore, it is necessary to study electrical sensing biosensors that are easy to miniaturize to develop wellness wear. This paper describes the electrical sensing biosensor (an electrochemical method nanowire/carbon nanotube FET method) in detail. Finally, the future direction of biosensors to be applied to wellness wear is suggested.

U-city is one of the most competitive field in Korea in the future and it has many subdivision applying field. U-health and u-disaster are important fields of u-city and many projects are being done about those fields. Because each filed is being developed independently, the better efficiency cannot be expected in case of disaster. The most important focus in disaster is the maintenance of human life and dignity, so u-health and u-disaster should be developed together and organized as the same filed for the practical assistance in case of disaster.

Methylmercury (MeHg: CH3HgCl) is a ubiquitous environmental toxicant that readily bioaccumulates in aquatic foodchains. This toxicant is most highly exposed to humans through the ingestion of contaminated food. and thus is an ongoing health concern. Thus far. MeHg has been suggested to exert its toxicity through its high reactivity to thiols of bioactive proteins. elevation in intracellular Ca2＋ concentration. and generation of reactive oxygen species. but its mechanism remains poorly understood.

본 논문에서는 만성질환을 갖고 있으면서도 일상생활을 하고 있는 만성질환 환자의 응급상황에 대비할 수 있는 u-Health 시스템 구축에 대하여 논한다. USN과 전자청진기, GPS, CDMA 그리고 RFID로 구성된 PHC(Personal Health Care) 장치에 의해 환자의 위급상황이 감지되면 위치정보를 포함한 문자메시지를 병원과 보호자의 모바일 단말기로 전송하여 즉각 대처할 수 있도록 한다. 특히 유비쿼터스 센서로 구성된 기울기/가속도 센서와 진동센서로 부터 수신되는 신호패턴을 분석하여 기절현상 또는 발작 증상과 같은 응급상황 여부를 판단한다. 이 시스템을 항상 주의가 필요한 만성질환자에게 적용시킴으로써 응급 상황에 신속히 대처하여 귀중한 생명을 구할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

As the society changes more to the aging society in future, many healthcare product are developed and distributed more on the market. The digital wrist band tye blood pressure device for home use are popular already in the market. It is useful for checking blood pressure level at home and control of hypertension. Especially. It is very essential home device to check the health condition of blood circulation disease. Nowadays many product types are available. But the measurement accuracy of blood pressure is not enough compared to the mechanical type. It needs to be upgraded to assure the precise health data enough to use in the hospital. The structure, feature and output signal of capacitor type pressure sensors are analyzed. An improved design fa capacitor sensor is suggested. It shows more precise health data after use on a wrist band type health unit. They can be applied for remote u-health medical service.
