Background
Early rehabilitation in the intensive care unit (ICU) improves patients’ physical function. Despite reports of using commercially available interactive video game systems for rehabilitation, there are few data evaluating feasibility and safety as part of routine in-patient rehabilitation, particularly in the ICU.

Demographic trends in southern Netherlands predict an increasing aging population in the next decade. There will not be enough health care providers available to meet the growing demand of care of elderly. Therefore, there is a need to reorganize the Dutch health care system in a more efficient way. In this process, innovative technologies can play an important role. Videocommunication enables elderly living at home to contact the health care organization by a 24/7 screen-to-screen video communication. Several care organizations started projects to implement videocommunication. Different combinations of technology were used, ranging from high speed remote controlled cameras combined with a set top box connected to a regular TV set, to a webcam using a computer based internet application. These experiments were enabled by grants from the Dutch government to support the investment by care organizations, as well as an experimental provision to arrange for the re-imbursement of the services.

“La courte vidéo dessous visualise CardioCam, une innovation de la célébre MIT Medialab. Cardiocam permet de détecter de façon précise la fréquence cardiaque, la pression artérielle et d’autres rythmes, grâce à un miroir technologique. Ce miroir fonctionne grâce à la détection de subtiles modifications de la couleur de la peau. Comment imaginer que cet outil ne soit pas adopté ? Et pourtant sa mise en oeuvre pourrait impliquer une nouvelle façon d’envisager la santé, où nous nous monitorons en permanence, jeunes et moins jeunes pour essayer d’optimiser nos paramètres…ce qui génère tout une série de questions scientifiques et éthiques.”

Remote measurements of the cardiac pulse can provide comfortable physiological assessment without electrodes. However, attempts so far are non-automated, susceptible to motion artifacts and typically expensive. In this paper, we introduce a new methodology that overcomes these problems. This novel approach can be applied to color video recordings of the human face and is based on automatic face tracking along with blind source separation of the color channels into independent components.

“I have never met Dr. Joseph C. Kvedar of Partners HealthCare’s Center for Connected Health, Susannah Fox of Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project, or Professor Andy Clark of Edinburgh University face to face in the real world. And yet they have all profoundly changed the way I think about health care’s most vexing problem: how are we going to take care of all these Baby Boomers who are starting to retire and get sick?

This study examines the content of and audience response to organ donation videos on YouTube, a Web 2.0 platform, with framing theory. Positive frames were identified in both video content and audience comments. Analysis revealed a reciprocity relationship between media frames and audience frames. Videos covered content categories such as kidney, liver, organ donation registration process, and youth. Videos were favorably rated.

A diverse range of tools and techniques can be used to observe the clinical consultation and the use of information technology. These technologies range from transcripts; to video observation with one or more cameras; to voice and pattern recognition applications. Currently, these have to be observed separately and there is limited capacity to combine them. Consequently, when multiple methods are used to analyse the consultation a significant proportion of time is spent linking events in one log file (e.g. mouse movements and keyboard use when prescribing alerts appear) with what was happening in the consultation at that time. The objective of this study was to develop an application capable of combining and comparing activity log-files and with facilities to view simultaneously all data relating to any time point or activity. Interviews, observations and design prototypes were used to develop a specification. Class diagram of the application design was used to make further development decisions. The application development used object-orientated design principles. We used open source tools; Java as the programming language and JDeveloper™ as the development environment. The final output is log file aggregation (LFA) tool which forms part of the wider aggregation of log files for analysis (ALFA) open source toolkit (www.biomedicalinformatics.info/alfa/).
