Healthcare: facts and figures

• The issues:– Aging population (worldwide)– Need to improve the quality of service– Need to provide additional services

• In 2007 $2 trillions spent in the USA on healthcare• 25% of the national economy (USA) tied up in

healthcare by 2025• Underdeveloped countries do not have enough

healthcare professionals to serve the population in far-away regions

• From specialized medical center to personal environment (body, home, office, car)

• Individual autonomy in the sample extraction (no needs of specialized assistance)

• ‘bit’ transmission instead of biological samples movement

1. Bio-sensors2. Sensor networks (body gateway)

3. Connection through low power wireless
