모바일 헬스케어 서비스에서 환자의 응급 상태를 정확하게 응급 감지하고 신속히 알리는 것이 매우 중요하다. 기존의 헬스케어 서비스에서는 전달된 생체 정보를 의료진 또는 의료 서비스 공급자가 항시 모니터링을 하여 환자의 상태를 판단하게 된다. 하지만 의료진이 항시 모니터링을 해야 하기 때문에 다수 환자를 실시간으로 동시에 모니터링하기에는 어렵다. 더구나, 환자마다의 고유한 환자의 건강 상태의 특징 (나이, 성별, 병력 기록 등)들이 있기 때문에 통계적인 의료 지식으로 환자의 상태를 진단하는 것은 더욱 힘든 일이다. 이러한 기존의 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 본 논문에서는 사용자 맞춤형 응급관리를 위한 모바일 헬스케어 시스템을 제시한다. 제안된 모바일 헬스케어 시스템의 특징은 환자의 고유한 건강 상태의 특징을 정책으로 정의하고 이를 기반으로 환자로부터 측정된 생체 정보에 대해 응급 상태를 판단하는 것이다. 제안된 모바일 헬스케어 시스템의 개념을 입증하기 위해 프로토타입을 구현하였다.

In this study, we developed five mobile units and an integrated system which can manage vital signs from each unit using Bluetooth wireless communication. The five kinds of mobile unit were so designed that each has different function to be applied according to the condition of patient properly. The mobile units can measure ECG signal of single or 12 channel, blood pressure, pulse and SpO2 signal from a patient. Also, to reduce the uncomfortable measurement, several types of units such as belt type, wrist type and necklace type were designed. Our proposed system can integrate and monitor several biological signals from different patient by using Bluetooth wireless communication simultaneously. The developed system was evaluated in the simulated emergent situation and showed the system can monitor 5 patients in maximum according to the data quality. It showed the possibilities that the developed system can be used effectively for emergency situation or in- or out-hospital transport of patient. In future, with the combination of mobile communication technique, a patient who is in emergency situation can be provided with proper first-aid and a doctor can pile information of patient and give better diagnosis and treatments.

Objectives: This study was conducted to investigate providers' perspectives on current challenges in implementing a program for prevention and management of childhood obesity and adoption of mobile phone as a potential solution of leveraging multimodal delivery and support in a school setting. Methods: The qualitative data were collected through face-to-face in-depth interviews with 23 elementary-school teachers, 6 pediatricians, and 6 dieticians from community health centers and analyzed using a qualitative research methodology. Results: Current challenges and potential solutions of obesity-prevention and -management program for obesity program for elementary school children were deduced as two themes each. Lack of tailored intervention due to limited recipient motivation, lack of individualized behavioral intervention, and different environmental conditions can be solvable by mobile technology-based personalized intervention which brings about interactive recipient participation, customized behavioral intervention, and ubiquitous accessibility. Lack of sustainable management due to stigmatization, limited interactions between program providers and inconsistent administrative support can be handled by multimodal support based on school setting using mobile platform providing education of health promoting behaviors toward larger scale and interactive networking between program participants, and minimizing administrative burden. Conclusions: Adoption of mobile-based health management program may overcome current limitations of child obesity program such as lack of tailored intervention and sustainable management via personalized intervention and multimodal supports although some concerns such as increased screen time need to be carefully considered in a further study.

As the number of Coronavirus Disease-19 (COVID-19) patients increases in a global pandemic situation, the usefulness of mobile computed tomography (CT) is gaining attention. Currently, mobile CT follows the basic safety and essential performance evaluation criteria of whole-body or limited-view X-ray CT in order to obtain device approval and evaluation in the Republic of Korea. Unlike stationary CT, mobile CT is not operated in shielded areas but rather areas such as intensive care units, operating rooms, or isolation rooms. Therefore, it requires a different basic safety and essential performance evaluation standard than stationary CT. In this study, four derived basic safety evaluation criteria related to electrical, mechanical, and radiation safety were included (dose indication test, protection against stray radiation, safety measures against excessive X-rays, half-value layer measurement); and seven essential performance evaluation criteria were included (tube voltage accuracy, mAs accuracy, radiation dose reproducibility, CT number of water, noise, uniformity, and spatial resolution); total eleven basic safety and essential performance evaluation criteria were selected. This study aims to establish appropriate basic safety and essential performance evaluation criteria for simultaneously obtaining images with diagnostic value and reducing the exposure of nearby patients, medical staff, and radiologic technologists during the use of mobile CT.

Recently, mobile healthcare services have attracted significant attention because of the emerging development and supply of diverse wearable devices. Smartwatches and health bands are the most common type of mobile-based wearable devices and their market size is increasing considerably. However, simple value comparisons based on accumulated data have revealed certain problems, such as the standardized nature of health management and the lack of personalized health management service models. The convergence of information technology (IT) and biotechnology (BT) has shifted the medical paradigm from continuous health management and disease prevention to the development of a system that can be used to provide ground-based medical services regardless of the user's location. Moreover, the IT-BT convergence has necessitated the development of lifestyle improvement models and services that utilize big data analysis and machine learning to provide mobile healthcare-based personal health management and disease prevention information. Users' health data, which are specific as they change over time, are collected by different means according to the users' lifestyle and surrounding circumstances. In this paper, we propose a prediction model of user physical activity that uses data characteristics-based long short-term memory (DC-LSTM) recurrent neural networks (RNNs). To provide personalized services, the characteristics and surrounding circumstances of data collectable from mobile host devices were considered in the selection of variables for the model. The data characteristics considered were ease of collection, which represents whether or not variables are collectable, and frequency of occurrence, which represents whether or not changes made to input values constitute significant variables in terms of activity. The variables selected for providing personalized services were activity, weather, temperature, mean daily temperature, humidity, UV, fine dust, asthma and lung disease probability index, skin disease probability index, cadence, travel distance, mean heart rate, and sleep hours. The selected variables were classified according to the data characteristics. To predict activity, an LSTM RNN was built that uses the classified variables as input data and learns the dynamic characteristics of time series data. LSTM RNNs resolve the vanishing gradient problem that occurs in existing RNNs. They are classified into three different types according to data characteristics and constructed through connections among the LSTMs. The constructed neural network learns training data and predicts user activity. To evaluate the proposed model, the root mean square error (RMSE) was used in the performance evaluation of the user physical activity prediction method for which an autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model, a convolutional neural network (CNN), and an RNN were used. The results show that the proposed DC-LSTM RNN method yields an excellent mean RMSE value of 0.616. The proposed method is used for predicting significant activity considering the surrounding circumstances and user status utilizing the existing standardized activity prediction services. It can also be used to predict user physical activity and provide personalized healthcare based on the data collectable from mobile host devices.
