Vulnusmon - assessing a digital bandage as an exemplary project for digital transformation in the healthcare industry - applying the technology acceptance model: society´s perspective on a digital bandage
| Resumo: | Digitalization in healthcare continues to advance. This work presents a project focused on developing a digital bandage to monitor chronic wounds, “vulnusMON”. It aims to increase efficiency and to enhance conditions for healthcare workers. After examining aspects of technology, assembly, sustainability, and society, the conclusion that the project should be pursued is drawn, accounting for different perspectives of medical staff and patients. Data is transferred wirelessly through Bluetooth Low Energy and LTE-M with several security measures to diminish the risk of privacy issues. To preserve the environment, the digital bandage is composed of partly reusable electronic components, such as sensors. |
