Chapter One:
Introduction
1.1 Background and Rationale:
Hypertension, a prevalent cardiovascular condition, poses a significant health challenge globally, including Nigeria. The effective management of hypertension requires continuous monitoring to ensure timely intervention and reduce the risks associated with uncontrolled blood pressure. In the era of advancing healthcare technologies, there is a compelling need for innovative solutions to enhance patient safety. This chapter introduces the research focus on the design and implementation of an implantable hypertension monitoring system, aiming to provide real-time alerts and foster proactive healthcare management.
The advancement of information technology (IT) has resulted in significant improvements in health care services, particularly in remote health monitoring. One of the primary purposes of employing physical sensor networks is to focus on disease prevention and early identification of high-risk disease disabilities. Today, smart technologies and sophisticated instruments (such as smart wireless and wearable sensors) have substantially risen for rapid monitoring and control of patients’ situations via prompt access and continuous assessment of patients’ vital health signs.
The capacity of such smart devices to store and transport data is critical in several forms of healthcare or medical care (for example, telemedicine). Wearable sensors are primarily used to observe and track patients’ health problems and status, and a variety of other health-related functionalities. In other words, the vital health signs represent the patient’s physiological status, organ activity, and illness progression. The assessment of these indicators has a significant influence on disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and nursing care . These health data, if assessed accurately and promptly, might provide a useful reference for efficient and high-quality medical care. Many smart devices, Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI)-based technologies have been designed and developed to enhance prompt and continuous assessment of patient’s health status and applicable healthcare sub-systems.
Smart devices, specifically wearable sensors, have attracted a lot of attention in the last decade, mostly in the healthcare field. Such devices seek to derive therapeutically important health-related data from physical (body) indicators such as heart rate (HR), blood pressure (BP), body temperature, respiration rate, and body motion. That is, basic health information is derived and shared using applicable wearable sensors and wearable sensor networks. Wearable sensor networks (WSNs) are made up of a variety of health-related sensors. Such networks’ sensors are put on various regions of the body, and these sensors may be worn or implanted on the patient’s body. Each of these sensors has unique criteria for identifying and recording symptoms (health-related data). However, due to many diseases and impairments, patient monitoring continuity for prompt medical intervention and delivery is pivotal. As a result, using WSNs to monitor patients is a key area of deployment of smart wearable technology in the healthcare domain.
Furthermore, the successful alliance of AI and healthcare has morphed into improved patient healthcare in areas ranging from hospital productivity and patient safety [8] to quality medical treatment. AI as a tool and/or technology is used to analyze and visualize patient data for adequate healthcare administration. Much of the research on the influence of AI on medical outcomes has been beneficial and encouraging . For example, health professionals and patients are increasingly utilizing and managing medical applications and medical-based games not only to remotely monitor patients but also as evidence-based medicine. This phenomenon is observed in both doctors and patients alike. The adoption of AI in healthcare gives credence to patient empowerment and a more equitable dialogue between doctors and patients. A practical example is the use of cloud computing with AI to enhance access to health data and the administration of medical resources. In terms of data, patients’ health data are required to tailor specific patient treatment and it can be further utilized for disease prediction and healthcare policymaking through big data analytics (BDA). The IoT as a tool can be paired with AI-based technologies or platforms to further improve and promote quality healthcare delivery [16]. The success of IoT in various application domains serve as indicator for its acceptance and integration with wearable sensors and AI technologies for quality healthcare delivery. Wearable sensors are used as objects or components in IoT and are controlled via the communication links such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and in recent time, the Internet.
With the introduction of IoT in healthcare, in which things (in this case sensors) can communicate and analyze data, the collection of basic health-related data can be partly or wholly automated, reducing the strain placed on doctors for continuous profiling of health examination data. Furthermore, IoT processes and stores data on a distributed platform
1.2 Statement of the Problem:
Hypertension often presents as a silent condition, with adverse consequences if not promptly addressed. In Nigeria, limited access to continuous monitoring exacerbates the challenge of timely intervention. Existing blood pressure monitoring methods, particularly those relying on intermittent measurements, may miss critical fluctuations. This research seeks to address these limitations by proposing an implantable hypertension monitoring system that enables real-time data tracking and alert generation, thereby enhancing patient safety.
1.3 Objectives of the Research:
The primary objectives of this research are:
To design an implantable hypertension monitoring system capable of real-time data collection.
To implement a reliable alert mechanism within the monitoring system for immediate response to critical blood pressure fluctuations.
To evaluate the feasibility, efficacy, and safety of the proposed implantable system in a Nigerian healthcare context.
1.4 Research Questions:
To guide the research, the following questions are posed:
What are the design specifications and requirements for an implantable hypertension monitoring system?
How can real-time alerts be effectively integrated into the monitoring system to ensure timely intervention?
What are the practical implications, challenges, and safety considerations in implementing the proposed system in the Nigerian healthcare landscape?
1.5 Significance of the Research:
The proposed implantable hypertension monitoring system represents a paradigm shift in hypertension management, especially in resource-constrained settings like Nigeria. By providing continuous and real-time monitoring, the system aims to improve patient safety through early detection of blood pressure variations. The research outcomes are expected to contribute to advancements in healthcare technology and offer practical insights for healthcare professionals and policymakers.
1.6 Scope of the Research:
This research focuses on the design, implementation, and evaluation of the implantable hypertension monitoring system within the context of Nigeria’s healthcare infrastructure.
