Abstract
A personal, cost-effective, multi-parametric monitoring system has been developed. Textile platform and portable sensing devices have been used for long term and short term data acquisition from selected classes of patients with mood disorders. The system allows the medical staff to monitor patients 24 hours a day and provides physiological parameters, indexes and trends that will be used to estimate the mood status, to provide patient support, to predict and anticipate treatment response, and to generate an alarm in case of critical events and relapse. The monitoring system is ready to be evaluated in clinical studies.
