Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are always accompanied with critical symptoms that can cause sudden death. Those symptoms may not be recognized by most of humans. So it could be too late when those symptoms are recognized and assigned to medical help. Pervasive health care systems can solve this dilemma by continuous monitoring of suspected patients. Pervasive health care is used to shift the already established, hospital based, centralized health care system to another ubiquitous, user-centered, and mobile system as an overall preventive health management system. Pervasive health care is expected to have a strong impact on quality and efficiency of health care domain as well as a strong impact on patients' quality of life. Because of its ubiquitous, autonomous nature, it also helps to increase independency and emergency prevention. This paper presents an overview of recently published technical researches regarding the pervasive health care as an application of ubiquitous computing. As well as introducing the authors' new model and prototype for a new proposed system of an affordable real time emergency detection and response of critical heart conditions Aff-HRM that is especially designed for financially not-capable cardio patients.
