Abstract

Sensor based applications and Wireless Technologies introduce sophisticated health methods, especially for patients who need continuous monitoring. Wireless Body Area Networks (WBAN) applied in medical systems provide wireless wearable sensor's structured architecture, which uses elements of remotely observance and monitoring of home-based patient rehabilitation. The possibility of transmitting and receiving remotely and continuously signals leads to constant monitoring of patient's vital parameters and real-time exchange of information. Considering Republic of Kosovo as a developing country, this application is considered to provide many benefits. As thought, the system will offer constant monitoring, early detection and prevention of abnormal conditions which are caused from last war or even natural conditions. Current research will present thoroughly examined and observed WBAN related factors which are used for enhancing e-healthcare. Moreover, during our future research we plan to analyze all existing architectures in order to conclude on and propose a unique schema that can be applied on developing regions, like Kosovo, and be beneficial.
