Context-aware system for cardiac condition monitoring and management: a survey.

Health monitoring assists physicians in the decision-making process, which in turn, improves quality of life. As technology advances, the usage and applications of context-aware systems continue to spread across different areas in patient monitoring and disease management. It provides a platform for healthcare professionals to assess the health status of patients in their care using multiple relevant parameters. In this survey, we consider context-aware systems proposed by researchers for health monitoring and management. More specifically, we investigate different technologies and techniques used for cardiac condition monitoring and management. This paper also proposes 'mCardiac', an enhanced context-aware decision support system for cardiac condition monitoring and management during rehabilitation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
