The Need for a Software To Remotely Monitor VAD Patients and the Designing, Planning and Project Support Phases of PASA VAD

Abstract

Objective: The aim of this study is to discuss the need, and the designing, planning and support phases of a remote monitoring software that supports the physicians and coordinators in the followup and treatment of patients by combining the features of smartphones with the software for the ventricular assist device patients.Material and Methods: The highlights and the content that should be in the software, and the engineering, workspace and foundation requirements of this study, were determined by the physicians and ventricular assist device VAD coordinators, who were working together in an experienced clinic in the field.Results: Project engineers who work on the development, design, testing and control of the mobile and desktop device’s software in addition to image processing and an expert with a PhD in biostatistics and medical informatics for the identification, adaptation, and integration of the necessary analysis methods to the software started to work with the support of TUBITAK. Antalya Technopark provided the workspace for the engineers. Vestel Electronics Industry and Trade Company provided a preliminary study for the support plan of the hardware that will work with software. Software will be developed for the Android, iOS and desktop platforms with these elements.Conclusion: It can be predicted that the variations of the PASA VAD software can support both the patient and the healthcare professionals for many different diseases that require remote monitoring. Moreover, it is foreseen that the data and data classes that will be obtained can create new data and data analysis clusters in the field of patient health through scientific studies
