我们的医疗保健管理系统越来越需要革新;人们需要更多地互动,更多地意识到自己的健康状况,以调整不正确的生活方式,获得根据自己的生理反应和环境状况进行的个性化治疗。为了了解公民的健康状况,并在不骚扰他们的情况下进行监测(直到他们拒绝任何医疗监督),必须对重要的生理参数进行舒适的远程监测。因此,该方法是将系统解决方案集成到具有集成纺织品传感器的功能服装中。功能性服装与集成电子和身体加工相结合,被定义为电子纺织品,并产生了智能生物医学服装。设计为微创的系统基于智能纺织技术,其中以纤维和纱线形式的导电和压阻材料用于实现服装,其中针织物传感器和电极被分布并连接到电子便携单元。这些系统能够检测、获取和传输生理信号。他们符合人体,并朝着改善患者的生活质量和他们的自主性迈进。这些系统在提供全天候援助、帮助医生在康复期间监测例如心脏病患者等方面也具有成本效益,此外还减少了住院时间。最后,通过向用户提供直接反馈,他们提高了他们的意识,潜在地可以更好地控制他们自己的情况,而同时记录生命体征允许参数推断和信号间的细化,这有助于产生警报消息和个性化的患者健康概览表。
There is a growing need of renovation in our health care managing systems; people need to be more interactive and more conscious of their own health condition in a way to adjust incorrect lifestyles, to obtain a personalized therapy tuned to their own physiological reactions and on their own environmental condition. To gain knowledge of a citizen’s health status and to monitor without harassing them (until they refuse any medical supervision), a comfortable remote monitoring of important physiological parameters is necessary. The approach is therefore to integrate system solutions into functional clothes with integrated textile sensors. The combination of functional clothes and integrated electronics and on-body processing, is defined as e-textile and gives rise to intelligent biomedical clothes. Systems, designed to be minimally invasive, are based on smart textile technologies, where conductive and piezoresistive materials in the form of fiber and yarn are used to realize clothes, in which knitted fabric sensors and electrodes are distributed and connected to an electronic portable unit. These systems are able to detect, acquire and transmit physiological signals. They are conformable to the human body, and move towards improving the patient’s quality of life and their autonomy. These systems are also cost-effective in providing around-the-clock assistance, in helping physicians to monitor for example cardiac patients during periods of rehabilitation, and in addition result in decreased hospitalization time. Finally, by providing direct feedback to the users, they improve their awareness and potentially allow better control of their own condition, while the simultaneous recording of vital signs permits parameter extrapolation and inter-signal elaboration that contributes to produce alert messages and personalized synoptic tables of the patient’s health.
