- ItemAn integrated model for cognitive behavioural therapy for mobile diabetes self-management system.(2015-01-09) Alanzi, T M; Istepanian, R S H; Philip, NThere is increasing clinical evidence that behavioural change theories can help diabetic patients with their diabetic management in providing better education and a healthy lifestyle In recent years Cognitive Behavioural Therapy CBT has been increasingly used as a key psychological method for studies of behavioural changes for diabetes patients However to date there is no extensive study that addresses the challenges and opportunities on applying CBT models within the mobile diabetes management cycle of care In this paper we present a review of the current status of CBT in diabetes management and propose a model for the implementation of CBT Therapy into a mobile diabetes management system by using smart mobile phone technologies
- ItemMapping of multiple parameter m-health scenarios to mobile WiMAX QoS variables.(2012-01-18) Alinejad, Ali; Philip, N; Istepanian, R S HMultiparameter m health scenarios with bandwidth demanding requirements will be one of key applications in future 4 G mobile communication systems These applications will potentially require specific spectrum allocations with higher quality of service requirements Furthermore one of the key 4 G technologies targeting m health will be medical applications based on WiMAX systems Hence it is timely to evaluate such multiple parametric m health scenarios over mobile WiMAX networks In this paper we address the preliminary performance analysis of mobile WiMAX network for multiparametric telemedical scenarios In particular we map the medical QoS to typical WiMAX QoS parameters to optimise the performance of these parameters in typical m health scenario Preliminary performance analyses of the proposed multiparametric scenarios are evaluated to provide essential information for future medical QoS requirements and constraints in these telemedical network environments
- ItemNon-telephone healthcare: the role of 4G and emerging mobile systems for future m-health systems.(2005-03-07) Istepanian, R; Philip, N; Wang, X H; Laxminarayan, SThe next generation of m health technologies is a new and evolving topic in the areas of telemedical and telecare systems These technologies involve the exploitation of mobile telecommunication and multimedia technologies to provide better access to healthcare personnel on the move by removing the key disadvantage of trailing wires in current systems These technologies provide equal access to medical information and expert care by overcoming the boundaries of separation that exist today between different users of such medical information A great benefit to all users will be a more efficient use of resources and far greater location independence In this paper we will address some notes and future trends in these emerging areas and their applications for m health systems Especially we will discuss the role of 4G and emerging mobile systems for future m health systems The new technologies can make the remote medical monitoring consulting and health care more flexible and convenient But there are challenges for successful wireless telemedicine which are addressed in this paper
- ItemOptimisation Issues of High Throughput Medical Data and Video Streaming Traffic in 3G Wireless Environments.(2005-05-30) Istepanian, R S H; Philip, NIn this paper we describe some of the optimisation issues relevant to the requirements of high throughput of medical data and video streaming traffic in 3G wireless environments In particular we present a challenging 3G mobile health care application that requires a demanding 3G medical data throughput We also describe the 3G QoS requirement of mObile Tele Echography ultra Light rObot system OTELO that is designed to provide seamless 3G connectivity for real time ultrasound medical video streams and diagnosis from a remote site robotic and patient station manipulated by an expert side specialists that is controlling the robotic scanning operation and presenting a real time feedback diagnosis using 3G wireless communication links
- ItemPerformance analysis of medical video streaming over mobile WiMAX.(2010-11-24) Alinejad, Ali; Philip, N; Istepanian, R HWireless medical ultrasound streaming is considered one of the emerging application within the broadband mobile healthcare domain These applications are considered as bandwidth demanding services that required high data rates with acceptable diagnostic quality of the transmitted medical images In this paper we present the performance analysis of a medical ultrasound video streaming acquired via special robotic ultrasonography system over emulated WiMAX wireless network The experimental set up of this application is described together with the performance of the relevant medical quality of service m QoS metrics
- ItemSubjective and objective quality assessment in wireless teleultrasonography imaging.(2009-02-16) Istepanian, R H; Philip, N; Martini, M G; Amso, N; Shorvon, PMobile Robotic teleultrasonography is an emerging technology that can be applied in different clinical settings for remote ultrasound scanning without the need of the expert at the point of care Guaranteed medical image quality for diagnostic purposes and their delivery in bandwidth limited wireless environments is a challenging issue In this paper we present some of the subjective and objective image analysis acquired from a robotic teleultrasonography system operated remotely by the expert to provide an assessment of these medical imaging measures for such advanced wireless telemedical system
