Abstract: The invention relates to a method for automated monitoring of the service quality of at least one person (P1-P8), recording and/or evaluating medical data sets as part of a telemedicine healthcare service. The invention also relates to a method for automated monitoring of the service quality of the person (P1-P8) recording and/or evaluating the medical data sets. The number of medical data sets received and/or evaluated by the person (P1-P8) per time unit or data characterizing the quality of the recordings and/or evaluation of the medical data sets are determined. The number of medical data sets received and/or evaluated by the person P1-P8) and/or the data characterizing the quality of the recordings and/or evaluation is/are compared with predetermined data and the service quantity and/or service quality of person (P1-P8) receiving and/or evaluating the data is calculated.

Abstract: A motor vehicle includes an assistance device for assisting in a diagnosis, therapy and/or prophylactic treatment on a person who is in the vehicle. An electronic data processing device is for automatically actuating and/or interrogating the assistance device. The assistance device can automatically activate at least one device intended to prompt the person to perform an action, e.g. to take medicaments or to perform a physiological exercise. There can also be an identification device for identifying the person, in order to actuate and/or to interrogate the assistance device on the basis of the result of the identification of the person.

Abstract: A medical system for monitoring a measured value of a patient characterizing blood clotting and/or for setting a medication that influences blood clotting for a patient in a home environment, has a device for acquiring measured values of the patient relating to blood clotting, a device for transmitting the measured values to a system central, a device for interrogating the measured values, and a reception device at a monitoring person. The system central has a memory for the measured values, an analysis device for the measured values by comparing the measured values to stored reference values, an alarm generator which generates an alarm signal upon a recognition of predetermined conditions, and a routing device for forwarding the alarm signal to a reception device of a person to be alerted in a process chain.

Abstract: A computer-aided method is for documenting a medically insignificant finding. By way of example, a display device on the computer system is used to display an electronic form suitable for the documentation to a doctor. The doctor then need activate only a single input element on the computer system, so that the activated input element is used to complete the electronic form automatically using prescribed data which are stored on the computer system and associated with an insignificant medical finding. A computer-aided method is also for documenting a medical finding. For this method, a display device on a computer system is used to display an electronic form suitable for the documentation to the doctor, for example. When the electronic form has been completed using data associated with the medical finding, a single input element on the computer system is activated, and the activated input element automatically prompts performance of at least one action by the computer system.

Abstract: A system for automatically monitoring persons in a domestic environment by using sensors for detecting characteristic parameters which are supplied to a surveillance center which, if necessary, alerts an alarm center, particularly a service provider, the sensors detecting a plurality of domestic devices (including measuring devices) used or operated regularly and the sensor data being supplied personalized and automatically to the center which evaluates the incoming data by using an expert system with predetermined rules.

Abstract: In a method for determining a data-compression method from a set of data-compression methods for data compression of an image dataset allocated to an image, the image dataset is data-compressed at a first location, the data-compressed image dataset is transmitted via an information transmission network to a second location, and the data-compression methods from among the set of data-compression methods exhibit different compression factors, dependent on one or more criteria.

Abstract: In a method for a data processing facility to control and monitor the process sequence of a telemedical healthcare service which is to be provided. On the basis of at least one criterion, a service facility available for providing a particular subsidiary service of the healthcare service is automatically instructed by the central data processing facility to provide the particular subsidiary service. The central data processing facility then monitors whether the respective subsidiary service is provided and transmitted to the central data processing facility by the instructed service facility in good time on the basis of a time stipulation, and/or whether the respective subsidiary service provided satisfies a quality stipulation.

Abstract: A medical system for continuously monitoring geriatric-psychiatric patients in a home environment, a senior's home or in a nursing home, has a device for acquiring events at the patient such as confused states, falls, aggressivity, wandering, immobility and/or medication side effects, a device for transmitting the acquired data of the events to a system center, and a reception device at a monitoring person. The system center has a memory for the data of the acquired events and predetermined undesired events, an evaluation device for the data with a comparator for comparing the data to the stored reference values of the predetermined undesired events, an alarm device for generating an alarm signal, and a routing device for forwarding the alarm signal to a reception device of a person to be alerted in a process (response) chain.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for checking whether a contract on a telemedical healthcare service can be effected between a service provider of the telemedical healthcare service and a customer. In the course of the method, a data processing device (4) of an agent undertakes inquiries with a customer in relation to a telemedical healthcare service. Thereupon, the data processing device (4) makes contact with a first database (5), which includes information on service offers from service providers of telemedical healthcare services, and checks whether a substantially corresponding service offer of a service provider can be assigned to the inquiry.
