Underpinning Improved Outcomes through Preventative Patient Care Models Based on Remote Monitoring and AI

A dramatic increase of senior population has brought serious challenges to the healthcare domain, imposing changes of the traditional care patterns. Emerging digital healthcare technologies (as Artificial Intelligence (AI), remote monitoring) provide solutions for early detection and prevention of many diseases. This paper aims to present how the functionalities of the RO-SmartAgeing remote healthcare monitoring system can be enlarged with support healthcare services provided by a conceptual model based on AI. Based on Machine Learning and Deep Learning models, the new functionality allow an early detection of certain cardiac issues, highlighting the preventative approach that is compulsory as heart diseases are closely associated with the elderly.
