Sažetak
Modern advances in technology allow new telemonitoring systems for prevention, early diagnosis and management of chronic and degenerative conditions. These remote monitoring systems reduce the need for recurring visits to hospital, allow physicians better insight into the patient’s state and help determine necessary level of care for each individual patient. Telemonitoring can also be applied on a long-term basis to elderly persons to detect gradual deterioration in their health status, which may imply a reduction in their ability to live independently. Functional potential of the upper extremities is a good indicator of how well a person can live independently and also helps determine their health status. This article presents OSGi residential gateway based telemonitring system. In addition, two new electronic devices used for monitoring functional degradation of upper extremities are introduced into the presented system. One of the two devices records dynamic properties of the hand grip (e.g. grip speed, grip stability, grip endurance) and the other device records hand movement dynamic properties (e.g. seed of movement, spectral components).
