- Abstract: Remote patient monitoring (RPM) technologies have been identified as a viable
alternative to improve access to care in underserved communities. Successful
RPM platforms are designed and implemented for seamless integration into
healthcare providers work to increase adoption and availability for offering
remote care. A quantitative survey was designed and administered to elicit
perspectives from a wide range of stakeholders, including healthcare providers
and healthcare administrators, about barriers and facilitators in the adoption
and integration of RPM into clinical workflows in underserved areas. Ease of
adoption, workflow disruption, changes in the patient-physician relationship,
and costs and financial benefits are identified as relevant factors that
influence the widespread use of RPM by healthcare providers; significant
communication and other implementation preferences also emerged. Further
research is needed to identify methods to address such concerns and use
information collected in this study to develop protocols for RPM integration
into clinical workflow.

Healthcare [2.259877069661293]
This study investigates the integration and impact of Large Language Models (LLMs), like ChatGPT, in India's healthcare sector.
Our findings reveal that healthcare professionals value ChatGPT in medical education and preliminary clinical settings, but exercise caution due to concerns about reliability, privacy, and the need for cross-verification with medical references.
General users show a preference for AI interactions in healthcare, but concerns regarding accuracy and trust persist.

Monitoring Systems [69.41229290253605]
Existing monitoring approaches were designed on the premise that medical devices track several health metrics concurrently.
This means that they report all relevant health values within that scope, which can result in excess resource use and the gathering of extraneous data.
We propose Dynamic Activity-Aware Health Monitoring strategy (DActAHM) for striking a balance between optimal monitoring performance and cost efficiency.
