Nick Hunn CTO – WiFore, Vice-Chairman, Mobile Data Association Mobilising Wireless and Health The role of wireless in consumer healthcare

What is changing in the healthcare business environment? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],When so many drivers occur together change can be revolutionary, not evolutionary.

Where are the business opportunities? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Two key opportunities are Managing Long Term Chronic Conditions Assisted Living

Long Term Chronic Disease in England ,[object Object]

Number of people with at least one LTC in England ,[object Object]

Proportion of people with LTCs by age ,[object Object]

Market Drivers – Long Term Condition Management ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Who buys it? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

Assisted Living ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

Assisted Living – Typical Sensor Locations SAPHE Project An example of sensor placement – typically many simple passive sensors

The Market ,[object Object],[object Object],Between 1 and 3 Billion sensors It is the largest single market for wireless sensors

Why Wireless? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],“ Too many wires.” “ There was a mess with all the wires. It took them a while to sort it out and conceal them.” JIT Evaluation of the Telecare Development Programme – Final report

The Wireless Advantage ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Bluetooth low energy is going to enable a new ecosystem of connected patients.

The Bluetooth low energy approach to internet connected devices ,[object Object],[object Object]

Gateway finds list of remote services ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

Gateway connects device to middleware ,[object Object],[object Object],Internet

Gateway provides transparent bridge ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

What’s missing? The Compelling Application that keeps users involved. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Where will it come from / Who will own the health brand? ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]

The Catch 22 of Telecare ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Open Source development may be the answer to these issues. In that case, the industry or sponsors should concentrate of providing development tools rather than services. There’s a growing number of programmers and product developers who are at the age where they have a vested interest in making it work. We need to engage them with Health 2.0 if we’re going to progress beyond it.

Mass deployment means thinking out of the box ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],I’ve got up… I’m watching the TV… I’m going to bed…
