Development of a Sensor-Based Patient Monitoring and Reporting Platform for Chronic Disease Management

Patients with chronic conditions require continuous monitoring to prevent complications, but current systems lack real-time data collection, comprehensive reporting, and seamless integration with healthcare providers. This results in delayed interventions and suboptimal patient outcomes.

A mid-sized medical device company specializing in sensor-based health monitoring solutions aimed at chronic disease patients, seeking to enhance patient engagement and clinical oversight.

• Implement a scalable web and desktop platform to collect, store, and display sensor data from patient devices.
• Enable both patients and healthcare providers to access real-time and historical data through intuitive dashboards.
• Generate detailed reports on patient activity, temperature, and pressure metrics to assist clinicians in decision-making.
• Ensure secure, HIPAA-compliant data handling and storage.
• Integrate sensor data seamlessly with external healthcare management systems.

• Patient dashboard displaying real-time sensor data such as temperature, pressure, and movement metrics.
• Clinician dashboard providing detailed reports including daily activity summaries, temperature variations, and pressure changes, with note-taking capabilities.
• Data reporting module for generating and exporting detailed summaries for clinical review.
• Secure data transmission and storage infrastructure supporting continuous sensor data ingestion.
• User authentication and role-based access control to ensure privacy and data security.
• Notification system alerting clinicians and patients of abnormal readings requiring attention.

• Sensor device APIs for real-time data ingestion
• Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems for patient data synchronization
• Notification and alerting services
• Secure cloud storage services

• Scalability to support increasing number of users and sensors
• High performance with data processing latency under 2 seconds
• Data security and compliance with healthcare privacy regulations (e.g., HIPAA)
• Availability of at least 99.9% uptime
• Responsive UI compatible with various devices and screen sizes

This platform is expected to improve patient outcomes by enabling early detection of complications through continuous monitoring, reduce hospital readmissions, and streamline clinician workflows. The system aims to handle a growing user base efficiently, enhancing the company's market position in remote health monitoring solutions.
