MobiHealth旨在基于2.5(GPRS)和3G(UMTS)技术在移动医疗领域推出新的移动增值服务。这是通过将传感器和执行器集成到无线体域网络(BAN)来实现的。这些传感器和执行器不断测量生命常数，并将其与语音和图像/视频一起传输给医疗服务提供商和经纪人，一方面改善患者的生活，另一方面允许在疾病预防和诊断、远程援助、准健康服务、身体状态监测(体育)甚至临床研究领域引入新的增值服务。此外，MobiHealth BAN系统允许护理人员直接从事故现场发送可靠的生命参数数据以及音频和视频，从而支持在发生事故时快速可靠地应用远程协助。目前正在进行试验，重点是家庭护理、创伤护理和动态监测。
MobiHealth aims at introducing new mobile value-added services in the area of mobile healthcare, based on 2.5 (GPRS) and 3G (UMTS) technologies. This is achieved by the integration of sensors and actuators to a Wireless Body Area Network (BAN). These sensors and actuators continuously measure and transmit vital constants along with voice and images/video to health service providers and brokers, improving on one side the life of patients and allowing on the other side the introduction of new value-added services in the areas of disease prevention and diagnostic, remote assistance, para-health services, physical state monitoring (sports) and even clinical research. Furthermore, the MobiHealth BAN system supports the fast and reliable application of remote assistance in case of accidents by allowing the paramedics to send reliable vital constants data as well as audio and video directly from the accident site. Trials are underway focusing on home care, trauma care and ambulatory monitoring.
