Modeling the In-home Lifestyle of Chronic Anorectal Patients via a Sensing Home

摘要

The prevalence rate of anorectal disease is relatively high in China. Life style is one of the most important correlation factors with chronic anorectal disease. However, clinical diagnosis is insufficient to collect the data from patients' homes because the whole set of previous facilities is too expensive for patients to afford. In this paper, we propose a feasible wireless-based solution to deploy a cost-effective data collection scheme. We compare and analyze the living data sampled from volunteers during 28 days. Furthermore, an understandable behavior routine model presented as heat-map can be provided to clinicians. With this auxiliary data, professional guidance on living habits might be greatly beneficial for augmenting the life quality of patients suffering from chronic diseases.
