Abstract :
This work intends to define requirements to design, deploy, evaluate and validate the feasibility, efficiency and safety of an enriched telecardiology application for providing remotely ECG and Holter diagnostic/monitor services as atrial fibrillation screening. The platform must include supporting tools for e-learning that allow to operate the solution by general practitioners and patients for second opinion, best follow-up through home monitoring and on-line learning, boosted by an on-demand virtualized data recording and training infrastructure, based on a cloudified infrastructure. It can be understood as an experiment that will use a cloudified infrastructure to deploy new telecardiology related services, particularly for atrial fibrillation patients that could be monitorized from several ambulatories.
