Abstract

Demographic trends suggest that by 2050 approximately 11 % of the world population will be 80 or older. If a fast increase of chronic diseases is also considered, it becomes clear the present healthcare capacities won%t be enough. The elderly and people with limited abilities must be assisted in their home environment and, thus, reduce needs for hospitalization and institutionalization. Today%s computer and communication technologies provide different smart devices, which is a core of emerging intensification of homecare services, in particular remote and unobtrusive monitoring of human functional- health parameters.

Secondary abstract: Demografski trendi kažejo, da bo do leta 2050 približno 11 % svetovnega prebivalstva starejših od 80 let. Če dodamo še hitro naraščajoči obseg kroničnih bolezni, postane jasno, da sedanje zdravstvene zmogljivosti obremenitev ne bodo zdržale. Starejšim in ljudem z omejenimi sposobnostmi bo treba pomagati, da bodo čim dlje ostali samostojni v svojem domačem okolju, in tako omejiti hospitalizacije ter nujnost oskrbe v zdravstvenih zavodih. Današnje računalniške in komunikacijske tehnologije ponujajo pametne naprave, ki bodo kmalu omogočile bistveno intenziviranje zdravstvenih storitev na domu, predvsem kot nemoteče nadziranje parametrov funkcionalnega zdravja na daljavo.
