Project Background

2007-07-20T22:22:00.000-07:00

PHASE I. Project Background
This project is intended to address the current needs of information technology and research ways to improve on value and performance through economic impacts, technology interaction, and health monitoring approaches with deployment of technology as a utility.

This project will focus on home health monitoring functions, determine and describe health monitoring and the seamless integration, and detail a definition of required management utilities to include wireless, media, environmental, and security. Research objectives include the following:

Development of a public shareware database to manage and track health information including but not necessarily limited to cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, body mass index and weight, nutritional assessment and will be required to feed into standard application suites for presentation and interpretation.
Posture solutions for inclusion onto comprehensive information technology servers to enhance health monitoring functions by expanding the availability of technology beyond traditional methods and offering solutions in the form of utilities.

The results of this project are intended to demonstrate that better technology solutions for improved health monitoring functions need to be leveraged in a cost efficient approach and remains as the prominent driving force to provide effective solutions that are both practical and affordable. The ability to bring configured networks, tracking of routine health status indicators, and wireless utilities adds a dimension of monitoring intelligence that most consumers have never had in the past.

Part I: Identification and Significance of the Innovation
With some 76 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964 heading toward retirement, emerging technologies likely will help care for this aging baby-boomer generation. Technology is already being used to help keep tens of millions of older people in assisted living situations a lot safer. The National Association for Home Care in Washington, D.C., conducted several clinical trials of distance monitoring of blood glucose levels by computer and found improved outcomes in diabetes care.

[1] Similarly, trials of distance monitoring of blood pressures showed enhanced efficiency. Focus of this project will target the development of a shareware database management system to integrate devices for glucose, cholesterol, blood pressure and heart rate already available over the counter at most distribution centers and pharmacies. Consideration will be to evaluate the respective management of information strategies, transfer and archiving of data for longitudinal presentation and interpretation.

As long as consumers view technology as a necessity, we must all search for ways to support technology devices proliferating here, there, everywhere. Many consumers no longer ask if they should smart wire their homes but are left with what to do with it after its done. Yet, no home or office today has been able to advise consumers on all the various pieces that make up the technology enterprise.

[2] Because technology is quickly becoming a specialty, it is vitally important that criteria standards are in place for the seamless integration of future technologies. Monitoring health care functions and the targeted solutions need to be carefully crafted with the ability to be postured as a utility, and that every consumer can take charge and break away from the status quo with regards to proliferation of technology. To do this a community-wide network configured in a ‘server’ environment to centrally support health monitoring is proposed. Standardization is equally paramount to illustrate that such a server can be configured in ways to accommodate many of the current management functions and technologies, ensure security, disaster recovery, wired and wireless protocols, bandwidth management and truly bring intelligence for consumers and into the mainstream market.

Accordingly, there is no other choice but to evaluate the best and carefully crafted solutions for consumers. While not every consumers needs to have a computer, technology can help provide hidden functions for the passive consumer. Clearly, today both active and passive consumers are left with finding their own way of managing all the proliferation of health monitoring technology.

The time to act is clearly now. The intelligent home is perched on the edge of rapid growth, in much the same place personal computers were before they took off and became common consumer purchases. [3,4,5] What needs to be in place to drive that serious growth? Most obvious are mass-market prices that bring the technology within the range of more homeowners. Those prices will be driven by both standardized, secured server appliances and multiple uses of the technology to make the purchase more compelling. For instance, a single system that supports home health monitoring. security, entertainment and computer connectivity is naturally far more appealing to the cost-conscious mid-tier buyer than separate systems for all three functions.

We are in a period of transition that yearns to be molded into a period of progress. Tools need to move beyond pilot programs that allow self monitoring and make the most sense when impacting the level of cost for care requiring nurse or physician attention, creating opportunities for intervention, and empowering people to take ownership of their health status. This project will bring the critical mass of experience that makes adopting these tools a strategic necessity – the new home utility.

Part 2: Objectives
Medical devices, products and technologies are converging to revolutionize home- and self-care health systems in the United States, making it possible for people to play a greater role in maintaining their own health. These systems are geared toward a prevention-oriented, consumer-driven model for health care that includes innovations such as "smart devices" that can "think" for themselves, customized wearable devices, and wireless Internet-linked systems--all expected to deliver convenient, user-friendly, intelligent health care in the home.

For consumers, this could mean convenience in time and travel and reduced health-care costs, and--it is hoped--result in home-care systems that teach people to monitor themselves with gizmos that give timely warnings of illness so that they can turn to their physicians early--when intervention will do the most good. For doctors, it could mean more efficient--and effective--health care driven by patients who take greater responsibility for their own health.

OBJECTIVE 1: is to develop a state-of-the-art shareware database to manage and track all home health information including but not necessarily limited to cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, body mass index and weight, nutritional assessment and will be required to feed into standard application suites for presentation and interpretation.

Part 3: RESEARCH PLAN
Inititial inquiry seems to illustrate there is no one manufacturer that provides home health monitoring technologies to track Glucose, Blood Pressure and Heart Rate, and Cholesterol in a single comprehensive integrated system. [6] In order to evaluate the integration features of the various monitors from different manufacturers, it is expected that these monitors will need to be acquired for the purpose of developing interfaces for the passing of data read-outs to a centralized workstation or server. Some monitors may have integration features with other proprietary knowledge –based systems. The value of any existing reporting and interpretation functions will need to be described and documented with regards to integration with other home monitors (ie. Glucose with Cholesterol, Blood Pressure, and Heart Rate).

The best model for monitoring glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure is the expected outcome of this evaluation. Factored into the evaluation criteria will be cost of each monitor, robust functions, ease of integration, durability and cost for supplies, and other quality assurance requirements that address security, integrity of data read-out and accuracy, Each device will be evaluated for compliance with data transfer functions in both a wired and wireless mode.

Testing an integrated system for glucose, cholesterol, and blood pressure is requred. It is anticipated that realistic imaginary data can suffice for the testing and development of interfaces for this model without having to rely on real client or patient data. All devices will be required to capture no less than 5 read-outs with a maximum of 200. Data is to be transferred to a centralized database and review for accuracy, integrity, and duplicate data.

Migration to whole home health integration and monitoring will occur gradually in three stages. The technology delivery model of the future is envisioned to be predominantly home based in which home health monitoring technologies are provided in a manner that is convenient for the consumer --regardless of location within the home.

How It Works

2007-07-19T23:19:00.000-07:00

HOW IT WORKS

Keeping health care at home
Developments of all components of the Su Salud en Su CASA Home Health Monitoring Program and services are intended to provide you with the best of both worlds: the comfort and independence of staying at home, and the security of daily monitoring and proper medical attention.

Monitoring System Overview
Su Salud en Su CASA monitoring system is intended to connect — in-home patients and their monitoring units, senior living residents using multi-user monitoring units and assessment care nurses in the field; with healthcare professionals regardless of location.

Standard over the counter patient monitoring units regardless of manufacturer are required to record your heath measurement. All measurements as then called into an IVR telephone system with intuitive software to execute appropriate alerts, record and log measurements in chart ready formats, transmit all assessments and measurements to designated health care provider(s).

How the system works.
A patient using over the counter medical devices take their health measurements daily such as: weight, blood pressure, glucose, and cholesterol lipid panels. After completing the assessment, the patient simply calls the health assessment phone number and after proper pin identification, the patient responds to a series of assessment questions regarding the measurement to be reported. When the patient responds to s series of verification questions, the patient simply hangs up the phone and the monitoring session results are encrypted, compressed and sent to the central repository, and the database is updated with the results.

Once updated, built in interpretative functions evaluate the readings according to urgency and prepares the appropriate alerts and routed via fax, email, along with phone notification to the designated care givers, assisted living personnel and family members. After reviewing the data the clinician can then follow-up with a revised treatment plan with the patient.

Our Unique Technology
Software developers have traditionally developed software for use within an industry segment with only a superficial understanding of that industry. This approach has relied upon the principle that one solution fits all and the end user simply needs to adapt their daily practices to the developed software application. This approach does not work within the healthcare community, specifically as it applies to Telemedicine/Telehealth programs. Healthcare professionals have developed unique procedures, processes and protocols that are specific to their specialty and organizational structure. They expect and deserve technology solutions, including hardware and software that can adapt to their specific requirements, while supporting the delivery of quality healthcare without disruption to their current workflow process.

Su Salud en Su CASA uses a unique approach to software development that recognizes the need for solutions that can be easily adapted and rapidly deployed. Su Salud en Su CASA's integration platform employs a revolutionary and cost effective method of developing software applications that meet the specific needs and compliment and enhance the established workflow process. The Su Salud en Su CASA approach begins by asking the question: "What is your need and your workflow process," then develop with confidence a low-cost effective solution that is integrated with the established workflow process, thus eliminating extensive implementation and training programs.

Phase 2: Goals and Objectives

2007-07-04T09:30:00.000-07:00

PHASE 2

Background
With some 76 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964 heading toward retirement, emerging technologies likely will help care for this aging baby-boomer generation. Technology is already being used to help keep tens of millions of older people in assisted living situations a lot safer.

Today, telemedicine connections can bring high-resolution images and audio through not much more than a telephone line and a computer monitor. A telemedicine device installed in the home allows a nurse to complete an exam without the person ever having to leave the house.

"Telemedicine is simply a steppingstone to a more sophisticated home health-care future," says Steve Warren, Ph.D., assistant professor of electrical engineering at Kansas State University. It's a steppingstone that adds an element of reality to a caregiver’s job as a home-health nurse by allowing them to promptly see what's troubling a patient.

Su Salud en Su CASA recognizes that as information technology becomes a more robust resource for people and their health-care providers, the link to home- and self-care products will raise issues such as liability, privacy, financing, and most important, the safety and effectiveness of the products.

The National Association for Home Care in Washington, D.C., conducted several clinical trials of home-distance monitoring of blood glucose levels by computer and found improved outcomes in diabetes care. Similarly, trials of home-distance monitoring of blood pressures showed enhanced efficiency. But failure to improve outcomes of high-risk pregnancies through home-distance monitoring illustrates the difficulties in managing certain clinical applications in the home environment, and the need for further research and regulatory controls. This will require special consideration of the capabilities and limitations of people using the devices at home as well as in different types of environments.

Part 1: User Issues--A Major Concern
Given the newness of various technologies and known problems with some home-use devices, Su Salud en Su CASA is going to be skeptical of new medical technologies that are long on promise to consumers. As technological developments become more complicated, so do the requirements for their design to ensure that they can be used safely and effectively in the home.

"Human factors" is the science of interactions between people and technology, and involves designing a device with the users' abilities, limitations, and operating environments in mind. In short, the possibility of user errors (unintentional mistakes) always is of particular concern.

Medical device design problems can lead to errors when they don't consider that consumers can become easily confused using devices in the home. Distractions, such as children or other family members, variations in lighting and noise levels, and the demands of using the device exceeding the user's capabilities, all can contribute. Other problems, such as not following procedures precisely or relying on the device too heavily, also are concerns.

And, once the user becomes accustomed to a device, failing to follow maintenance and calibration procedures, taking shortcuts when a specific technique is critical, or failing to communicate with their home health-care professionals as often as they should, also could lead to trouble.
The critical question, has always been whether consumers will be able to use new medical technology without unintentionally making errors that could compromise their health.

The ability of patients to operate a medical device, for example, can depend on medical training and experience, language barriers, literacy, memory, learning ability, dexterity, vision, and hearing. Difficulties using certain devices can be caused by advanced age, medications, or the actual medical condition that requires use of a product. The focus of most of Su Salud en Su CASA's guidances will be on ensuring that users are able to safely operate and maintain the device--anything they would need to know about, such as controls, displays, software, labeling, and instructions.

Although new devices give people increasing control and a feeling of security when managing their health, users must remember to keep in regular contact with their health-care providers.

Part 2: No Mistakes
Stephen B. Kaufman, a pioneer in home-care technology from Deerfield, Ill., supports device technology that has "simple prompts" and "no possibility of mistakes." He says, "There are just too many opportunities to make bad mistakes." For this reason, the FDA has provided human factors guidance to manufacturers on device design that will reduce the likelihood of user error. This guidance document, titled "Medical Device Use Safety: Incorporating Human Factors Engineering Into Risk Management," can be found on CDRH's Web site at www.fda.gov/cdrh/humfac/1497.html (the document is also available as a PDF).

Design controls are a system of checks and balances that increase the likelihood that a device is designed, manufactured, used, and maintained properly, and that the device is appropriate for its intended use. Design controls are the part of a quality system that requires manufacturers to consider both human factors and the intended use environment during device design. The controls are intended to "build quality into the device."

Another factor contributing to the increase in user errors is the difficulty that consumers have understanding instructions provided with devices. Most are written for health-care professionals. Su Salud en Su CASA has plans to develop, plan and write the manuals for consumer use regarding the use of home-use devices. Su Salud en Su CASA will focus on consumer education and training, , and safety issues that new technologies may generate.

Part 3: A New Paradigm for Health Care
Today, what could be characterized as a return to home health care has much to do with the emergence of the Internet as a conduit of health information to patients. Those who remember huge mainframe computers can appreciate today's technology and the exponential advances in the compilation and distribution of information.

Home- and self-care devices are being projected as a high probability area for dramatic growth. This unfolding wing of modern medicine means that 21st century home- and self-care devices could soon revolutionize health-care delivery systems in the United States. And when these potential technological marvels are ready for the market, some may lead to products that we may wonder how we lived without.

SU SALUD EN SU CASA DEVICE PROFILE FOR HOME HEALTH MONITORS

The objective is to define how devices with Bluetooth™ wireless communications can use the Su Salud en Su CASA Protocol to discover the feature set, and then communicate with the a data repository which would apply preset intuitive processes for charting, notifying designated care givers, and updating respective family members with any requirements. The intent is to define how a device with Bluetooth wireless communications can support Su Salud en Su CASA services over the Bluetooth protocol.

Medical devices, products and technologies are converging to revolutionize home- and self-care health systems in the United States, making it possible for people to play a greater role in maintaining their own health.

These systems are geared toward a prevention-oriented, consumer-driven model for health care that includes innovations such as "smart devices" that can "think" for themselves, customized wearable devices, electronic patient records, and wireless Internet-linked systems--all expected to deliver convenient, user-friendly, intelligent health care in the home.

For consumers, this could mean convenience in time and travel and reduced health-care costs, and--it is hoped--result in home-care systems that teach people to monitor themselves with gizmos that give timely warnings of illness so that they can turn to their physicians early--when intervention will do the most good. For doctors, it could mean more efficient--and effective--health care driven by patients who take greater responsibility for their own health.

When your health monitor records an abnormal value, would you use a phone to call your caregiver?

The concept of a Bluetooth home health monitor is simply to regularly record a patient's cholesterol, blood pressure, glucose level, and send abnormal levels to the patient's cell phone, but also checks measurement trends and send a composite of measurements over time to a fax ,email, or intuitive database.
The Bluetooth monitor as such would give patients at risk for diabetes, cardiac complications a chance for more mobile lifestyles.
The difference between this wearable monitor and other previously developed ones that require a patient to call into an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system is that a wireless device not only transmits information to the caregiver through Bluetooth, a wireless network used to transfer information where urban WANS are implemented or being planned, but it is also designed to bypass the need to call in readings as proposed in Phase I using a developed IVR system.
Not only would this offer the patient more mobility, but it would save the consumer time in calling in daily readings and greatly reduce any margin of error due to miss-typing over a phone system.
There are certainly substantial advantages to be had from the ability to transmit directly from the device to Su Salud en Su CASA data repository.

Phase II: Goals and Objectives
