Synopsis

Advanced Sensors for Smart Healthcare provides an invaluable resource for researchers and healthcare practitioners who are eager to use technology to improve the lives of patients. Sections highlight data from sensor networks via the smart hospital framework, including data, insights, and access. This book shows how the use of sensors to gather data on a patient's condition and the environment their care takes place in can allow healthcare professionals to monitor well-being and make informed decisions about treatment.

• Describes the fundamentals of sensors, biosensors, and smart hospitals
• Explains how sensors and implanted nanodevices can be used in smart healthcare
• Discusses how intelligent wireless medical sensor networks can be used for healthcare in the future
• Companion volume to Sensor Networks for Smart Hospitals

From the Back Cover

Data from sensor networks via the smart hospital framework is comprised of three main layers: data, insight and access. Medical data is collected in real-time from an array of intelligent devices/systems deployed within the hospital. This data offers insight from the analytics or machine learning software that is accessible to healthcare staff via a smartphone or mobile device to facilitate swifter decisions and greater efficiency. Advanced Sensors for Smart Healthcare shows how the use of sensors to gather data on a patient's condition and the environment in which their care takes place can allow healthcare professionals to monitor their well-being and make informed decisions about their treatment. Written by experts in the field, Advanced Sensors for Smart Healthcare, sits alongside companion volume, Sensor Networks for Smart Hospitals, and is an invaluable resource for researchers and healthcare practitioners in their drive to use technology to improve the lives of patients.
