Abstract

Charles Jones has a clear vision for how community health information networks can improve health care delivery in West Virginia. He's seen what EDI has done for retailing and manufacturing industries. Now, he's trying to turn his dreams into reality by heading a consortium that's developing a strategy for building several networks in the state. Jones is demonstrating how one hospital executive with strong personal convictions can spark a sweeping effort to change the way a state health care system functions.

Wireless connectivity for health and sports monitoring: a review.

This is a review of health and sports monitoring research that uses or could benefit from wireless connectivity. New, enabling wireless connectivity standards are evaluated for their suitability, and an assessment of current exploitation of these technologies is summarised. An example of the application is given, highlighting the capabilities of a network of wireless sensors. Issues of timing and power consumption in a battery-powered system are addressed to highlight the benefits networking can provide, and a suggestion of how monitoring different biometric signals might allow one to gain additional information about an athlete or patient is made.
