Prof Nora Kearney on Revolutionizing eHealth with remote patient monitoring

  |   eHealth Forum 2014

Professor Nora Kearney dives into a 10 year journey into the eSmart project mostly designed for cancer patient monitoring and relief. She analyzes the technical side; the risk algorithms and the triggers that alert health professionals, real time. A purely patient driven project, that doesn’t neglect clinical finds, it focuses on patient perspective developing prototypes for long term conditions and multiple chronic disease manifestations. Interviewed by TTC’s George Voulgaris.
