Exploring Portable Multi-Modal Telehealth Solutions: A Development Approach

Abstract

In the realm of medical healthcare, standard modules are typically utilized in the design of both healthcare units and diagnostic devices. Despite the similarity in operational modes across sensory devices, variations exist in data retrieval methods. Consequently, researchers often develop distinct devices tailored for specific diagnostics. Given that sensors commonly operate in either digital or analog modes, the development of a versatile device capable of supporting multiple sensor types is both feasible and desirable, particularly in resource-constrained settings. The key challenge in such device development lies in software implementation and sensor calibration, ensuring accurate calculation of sensor values. Body statistics encompass various parameters, some directly detected by sensors in real-time, while others require calculation based on standardized procedures such as time-based averaging or differential value analysis. To address these challenges, we propose a system designed to facilitate the execution of multiple functional algorithms on a single device, triggered as needed and based on demand. This research study elucidates the methodology for handling diverse processes on demand and delineates multiple operational procedures pertinent to healthcare devices..
