Data handling of total artificial heart under home medical care

Data handling of medical devices are one of the most important things under home medical care. We examined data handling of total artificial heart (TAH) under home medical care based on animal experiments of the TAH.A system that collecting and storing all data of total artificial heart and experimental animal and notifying only emergency data as alarm was developed. The datum was stored almost in real-time and can be accessed through the Internet. We could handle the data from remote by the developed system. The most important and difficult point on the data dealing with under home medical care is notifying of the data. The data must be layered according to the priority and collected almost in real-time. On development of the TAH, data handling under home medical care must be concerned.
