Intelligent System for Telemonitoring Healthcare. Case study : COVID-19

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has overwhelmed the existing healthcare infrastructure in many parts of the world. Healthcare professionals are not only over-burdened but also at a high risk of nosocomial transmission from COVID-19 patients. Screening and monitoring the health of a large number of susceptible or infected ndividuals is a challenging task. Although professional medical attention and hospitalization are necessary for high-risk COVID-19 patients, home isolation is an e ective strategy for low and medium risk patients as well as for those who are at risk of infection and have been quarantined. However, this necessitates e ective techniques for emotely monitoring the patients' symptoms. Recent advances in AI have strengthened the power of analyzing techniques and can be used remotely to analyze and monitor the vital signs of a patient and take actions instantly. In this thesis we propose My Health intelligent system, wich is an Electronic Health Record and a emote Patient Monitoring system based on intelligent agents that collects vital signs of a patient and analyze it, store it and make a call to a favorite number phone, launch phone alarm to alert the nearby persons, sends an sms to the patient`s responsible doctor and emergency operating services if there is a critical case
