Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study was to look at the potential for wearable health devices (WHDs) to be used in telemedicine to monitor health in the growing number of patients with histories of heart failure by investigating the devices’ data collection potential and their usability. Results showed that, if a WHD was able to transmit data, because data could be collected minute-to-minute, sufficient data could be obtained to analyze and detect changes over time. However, to use the WHDs currently available on the market for this purpose, elderly patients would need a considerable amount of human technical support given the difficulty of device configuration and application maintenance. An investigation of the remote technical support for easily available WHDs on the market found that the types of users for which they have been designed is limited, and consequently concluded that further study is needed to investigate how WHDs could be adapted specifically for use by heart failure patients.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
政府も遠隔医療を推進しているが、遠隔医療に含まれる遠隔看護は高齢化、独居化する社会の中でも特に大きな期待をされているところである。本研究は、心不全患者への新しい形での遠隔看護の基礎資料を提供できることにつながると考える。
