摘要
Fujitsu Laboratories of America, Inc. and Fujitsu Laboratories of Europe Ltd. have been doing R&D on healthcare. We investigated what should be done in this area as an information and communications technology (ICT) company, and found out two important areas: improving medical systems and promoting preventive medical care. Both of these could be done very efficiently by utilizing ICT. To improve medical systems, we introduced the new notion of Q-Score, which represents the quality of each provision of healthcare, in order to evaluate them. Also, with respect to preventive medical care, we are conducting investigations on how to measure biodata such as blood pressure, pulse rate, or weight. There is a need to do this in various aspects of life without inconveniencing those who are having their data measured. We would like to have a method where people can be given advice based on such biodata as a way to promote health management. Moreover, such advice could be made dynamic, incorporating real-time contextual elements such as environmental data and health status. We report an overview of the current status of our activities in this paper.
