Resumo
A desordem metabólica que preconiza, pela ausência ou reduzido
controlo da quantidade de glicose no corpo humano, a dependência de insulina
(Type1)ou intolerância (Type2) Wijenaike (2007) afectava mais de 366 milhões de
pessoas em 2011. Isto representa um crescimento de 28 % novos casos em 1 ano.
Diabetes Mellitus tornou-se a mais comum das doenças crónicas em praticamente
todos os países, e continua a crescer em novos casos e importância, na medida em
que o desenvolvimento económico e urbanização leva à alteração dos estilos de vida
caracterizando-se pela reduzida falta de actividade física e aumento da obesidade
Federation (2011). Ambient Assisted Living é baseado numa série de tecnologias com
o propósito de melhorar o suporte ao dia a dia das pessoas. Um dos campos mais
importantes lida com a oferta de novas soluções para o bem estar. Estas soluções
visam melhorar a qualidade de vida das pessoas ao mesmo tempo que reduzem os
custos associados com os cuidados médicos Martins et al. (2010). Esta dissertação
de mestrado apresenta um protótipo de comunicação por Bluetooth baixo consumo,
sem bateria, capaz de transmitir a informação para um telemóvel, relógio de pulso
ou aplicação em PC. O propósito do sistema é recolher informação do sistema de
monitorização como o proposto por Leal (2010) e interagir com sistemas AAL como
o proposto por Martins et al. (2010).
The metabolic disorder which entails the absent or reduced control of blood glucose in the body by means of insulin dependence (Type1) or intolerance (Type 2)Wijenaike (2007) affects more than 366 million people in 2011. This represents an increase of 28 % new cases in one year. Diabetes Mellitus has become the most common chronic diseases in nearly all countries, and continues to increase in numbers and significance, as economic development and urbanization lead to changing lifestyles characterized by reduced physical activity, and increased obesity Federation (2011). Ambient Assisted Living is based on a set of technologies with the aim to provide an enhanced support to people’s daily life. One important field deals with the offer of new solutions for healthcare. Those solutions intend to improve the population quality of life and reduce costs associated with healthcare Martins et al. (2010). This master thesis presents a prototype of Bluetooth low power battery-less wireless sensor communication system capable transmitting the information to a mobile phone or wrist wireless phone. The purpose of the system is to gather routine information from the glucose monitoring system proposed by Leal, Alexandra Leal (2010) and interact with systems like Ambient Assisted Living from Martins et al.(2010).
