A MINIMALLY-INVASIVE SYSTEM FOR FREE-LIVING ACTIVITY MONITORING IN HOME CARE

• Abstract:

  A minimal wearable system to monitoring remotely normal free-living activity (e.g. laying, sitting, standing, and slow walking) of patients in their home space is proposed. Owing to its wireless features, the system can represent a useful tool to be implemented in a long-time patient monitoring system. These systems are useful for the clinical out coming or for minor chronic pathologies not requiring hospitalization.
