在本文中，我们提出了一个普遍的健康系统的设计和开发，使自我管理的慢性病人在他们的日常活动。所提出的系统集成了患者健康监测、用于捕获遇到的各种问题或症状的状态记录以及患者社区内记录的信息的社会共享，旨在促进疾病管理。一个原型上实现的移动终端说明所提出的工作的可行性和适用性，通过采用不显眼的生命体征监测通过可穿戴多传感设备，面向服务的架构，用于处理通信问题，流行的微博服务。此外，一项研究已经进行了16高血压患者，以调查用户的接受程度，有用性，和所提出的系统的优点。结果表明，该系统深受慢性病患者的欢迎，特别是愿意分享医疗信息的慢性病患者，且易于学习和使用，其功能已被患者整体认为有助于他们的疾病管理和治疗。
In this paper, we present the design and development of a pervasive health system enabling self-management of chronic patients during their everyday activities. The proposed system integrates patient health monitoring, status logging for capturing various problems or symptoms met, and social sharing of the recorded information within the patient's community, aiming to facilitate disease management. A prototype is implemented on a mobile device illustrating the feasibility and applicability of the presented work by adopting unobtrusive vital signs monitoring through a wearable multisensing device, a service-oriented architecture for handling communication issues, and popular microblogging services. Furthermore, a study has been conducted with 16 hypertensive patients, in order to investigate the user acceptance, the usefulness, and the virtue of the proposed system. The results show that the system is welcome by the chronic patients who are especially willing to share healthcare information, and is easy to learn and use, while its features have been overall regarded by the patients as helpful for their disease management and treatment.
