A Decision Support Service Platform for Neurodegenerative Disease Patients

摘要

The PERFORM project is funded under EC FP7 Program and aims to provide a platform for the remote health status monitoring, classification u00026; modeling, and the personalisation treatment of patient suffering from Parkinsonȁ9;s disease (PD) and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). The remote monitoring of neurodegenerative disease evolution is achieved via micro-sensors worn by the patients at home, forming a local network of specialised devices, which are in turn controlled by a Base Processing Unit (BPU) at patientȁ9;s home. The system uses advanced knowledge processing, fusion algorithms, u00026; data mining techniques in order to provide Clinical Decision Support (CDS) for medics u00026; specialist in neurodegenerative disease. This helps with the management u00026; personalised control of the symptoms, for each individual patient, during the evolution of the disease.
