[Telesurgery: standards--consultations--continuing education].

Abstract

The aim of the TESUS project is to bring together several European university hospitals in a federation as well as a certain number of clinical centers in a network, the purpose of which is the online and offline transmission of surgical procedure imaging and advice. The innovation is threefold: It provides the surgeon with online information, diagnostic and therapeutic tools and expert advice, the need for which might come up before and during surgical procedures, as well as the same services in the context of teaching and training through regular staff. The developed services will be a major contribution to EU-wide standardisation of health care procedures and therapeutic approaches.

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.
