MedGUIDE
MedGUIDE is a digital platform that brings together informal caregivers, medical professionals, pharmacists and the patients themselves. The platform will collect information from the local care network (patient, family, informal caregivers), both through self-reporting and sensor data collection. The self-reports and sensors will report on physical activity, sleeping patterns, movement habits, nutrition and social interaction aspects and medication intake and adherence to the prescribed therapy. The combination of the ‘human perspective’ and the ‘sensor perspective’ will provide an up-to-date view of the state and needs of the elderly patients. Furthermore, MedGUIDE will use big data analysis to detect changes in patients’ routines, in order to minimise side effects of medication.
