  • Software for Remote Medical Monitoring, Data Management and Teleconferencing
    Software for Remote Medical Monitoring, Data Management and Teleconferencing Dr. Fatima Merchant & Dr. Deniz Gurkan, College of Technology Dr. Frank Chapman & Dr. Paul McKneely, MediCAN Systems, Inc. Description: The goal is to develop a software application to support an internet enabled mobile triage unit. The application will integrate, telecommunication and computing equipment, and medical electronics (such as digital stethoscope, blood pressure monitor, pulse-oximeter, temperature monitor, otoscope, dermascope, and electrocardiogram (ECG) machine). A high-speed network connection (wireless or land-line) will be used to provide full interactive live video and audio capacity for teleconferencing. An interface with an electronic medical records (EMR) system with allow storage and management of medical records. The software should be developed using the Java API. An open source electronic medical record (openEMR) system supporting a MySQL database will be utilized and interfaced with the software. The database will be housed on a server and programmed to enable high security and flexibility. High-speed internet (land-line or wireless) will be used to facilitate high quality videoconferencing between two sites. For video conferencing, the system will be integrated to Microsoft NetMeeting software or Apple iChat, depending on operating system. Software Development Tasks: Task 1: Develop the GUI for the nurse and the physician interface A simple yet powerful user interface is necessary to control the hardware and to configure it to perform the desired data acquisition operations in the desired sequence. It is also necessary for the reporting, and for enhanced visualization of movies and images. The software should be developed using Java, including the JFC/Swing Application Program Interface's (API) for dialogs, menus, and other basic user interface components.

The teams have members working on the same project but living around the world in different time zones and thus having different working hours. The collaborations among the team members are intensive and important to the success of the project. Traditional collaboration methods, such as mail, telephone and so on, cannot fulfill the requirements of fast and efficient collaborations among the team. Virtual Engineering Initiative is an intelligent web collaboration system, which is designed to meet the collaboration needs of such teams. This thesis discusses the design and implementation of Virtual Engineering Initiative. Virtual Engineering Initiative has ten main components, which can be further classified into four functional groups: video conferencing, information publishing, instant messaging, and meeting scheduling.
