Telemonitoring and Teleconsultation

The interventions of this study are supported by a so-called Ambient Assisted Living Wizard (AAL Wizard). This is an IHE-compliant documentation and communication platform with an integrated electronic health record, which enables the study participants (elderly) to manage and store their relevant health data. It includes personal master data and the documentation of telemonitoring data. Additionally, the AAL-Wizard provides the communication modules such as telephone -, video- and time- and online consultation. The tele doctor assess the data (eg, vital signs and content of the medical teleconsultation) and collaborates in this way with the older person, family physicians and other health care providers based on an innovative and flexible telemedical home care service.
