SamKAD-prosjektet har vært et innovasjonsprosjekt i offentlig sektor i regi av Helseetaten i Oslo kommune. Gjennom forskning og innovasjon har målsettingen vært å utvikle samhandlingsløsninger til bruk i klinisk drift på KAD-sengeposter og legevakt som gir økt kvalitet i pasientbehandlingen...

This report summarize the experience from testing the EziSmart solution. The solution consist of the smartphone casing with physical keyboard, the Ezi-Pad, and a suite of applications. Nine seniors, some experienced smartphone users some not, started to evaluate the system in June 2016. Five out of...

The motivation for these experiments was to investigate the amount and type of protein adsorption on surfaces that can be used as protective coatings on membrane based in vivo devices. Adsorption of proteins to a selection of biocompatible coatings (titanium oxide, diamond-like carbon, parylene C...

Coordination of information and resources is central to efficient ward management. Tools to aid coordination include standardized procedures and paper lists and, more recently, electronic tools such as whiteboards and mobile solutions. This study reports on the experiences and effects of designing...

The pressure on the healthcare services is building up for several reasons. The ageing population trend, the increase in life-style related disease prevalence, as well as the increased treatment capabilities with associated general expectation all add pressure. The use of ambient healthcare...

This study investigated the usefulness of continuous sensor data for improving occupational cold stress assessment. Eleven volunteer male subjects completed a 90–120-min protocol in cold environments, consisting of rest, moderate and hard work. Biomedical data were measured using a smart jacket with...

Sensor-based monitoring of congestive heart-failure (CHF) patients living at home can improve quality of care, detect exacerbations of disease at an earlier stage and motivate the patient for better self care. This paper reports on a usability study of the ESUMS system that provides continuous...

Objective: One promising approach for a continuous, noninvasive, cuff-less ambulatory blood pressure (BP) monitor is to measure the pulse wave velocity or the inversely proportional pulse transit time (PTT), based on electrical and optical physiological measurements in the chest area. A device...
