Abstract

Telemonitoring of vital signs combined with other multimodal health data can provide a basic foundation for data medicine. The collected data can then be analyzed semi-automatically and made available to the physician for better assessment of the state of health. This procedure was tested in use-cases in a nursing home and with elderly people at home. In addition to several vital signs, patients were able to submit details of their health status. To enable a high number of valid measurements, support measures were established that are adapted to residents in nursing homes, in the home, and caregivers.
