Abstract :
This study designed an Android mobile platform to serve as a connection center for peripheral and personal health record servers, combining the frameworks of mobile health management and wireless body area networks (WBAN). The client and the healthcare server employ CCR (Continuity of Care Record) as the standard data exchange format, allowing it to work interoperability among various health information systems. We compared the performance and speeds of two formats used for CCR documents: XML and JSON converted from XML. The aim was to provide a transmission approach that makes the best use of the resources and offers a high degree of efficiency.
