Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
There is an ongoing and growing interest in remote health monitoring, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic, which accelerated the drive toward the digital transformation of healthcare. For people with chronic health problems, monitoring their disease progression remotely is critical for clinicians to provide evidence-based and timely treatment. Sensor-based solutions, such as continuous blood glucose monitoring devices, smart inhalers and wearable biosensors, were some examples developed to assist data-driven treatment.
The rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions in recent years provides an immense opportunity to collect and disseminate health data in a central data platform for outcome measures and, in some cases, leads to new treatments. Therefore, novel sensing targeting medical applications combined with the fusion of IoT technologies have now become key for remote health monitoring.
This Special Issue will address topic areas that support remote health monitoring utilizing biomedical sensors via the IoT. This can include early-stage engineering, information communication and technology development, or later-stage applied patient trials.
We welcome scientific advancements in this field through original research articles, case series and literature reviews.
Prof. Dr. Liudi Jiang
Guest Editor
