Trend of wireless u-Health

Wireless network based u-Health services enable people's health care anytime, anywhere. Recently technology advance in the area of sensing, networking, processing is developed rapidly. This advance of information technology is raising the change of traditional healthcare system. By using wireless and mobile networks, patients could be monitored and managed outside hospitals and also examined with safety and efficiency in hospitals. Even though there are lots of services for u-Health including commercial services, to envision and make u-Health become more active in the future, safety and usefulness of u-Health in the perspective of medicine should be needed.
