Abstract:
This paper presents a system for the evaluation of the physical and mental state of patients suffering from mild to moderate dementia. In addition to the development of a tele-medical monitoring system, a new business model is developed which enables a wide dissemination and a funding concept that supports the patients with financing. The aim of the project is to realize a seamless and cost-effective integration of monitoring at a patients home. Furthernore medical professionals involved in the treatment are enabled to see the monitored data via web-services. The technical realization allows the measurement of parameter like activity, quality of sleep, weight, lean and fat mass as well as total body water.
