Abstract

Diplomski rad istražuje primjenu tehnologija Industrije 4.0 u praćenju ljudskog zdravlja. U radu su najprije prikazani različiti pristupi praćenja ljudskog zdravlja s prednostima i manama ovisno o pristupu. Nadalje, navedeni i opisani su glavni zdravstveni parametri koji su bili potrebni za praktični dio rada tj. istraživanje koje je uključivalo mjerenje istih. Na kraju poglavlja navodi se da integrativni pristup koji uključuje različite stručnjake i aktivno sudjelovanje pacijenata postaje ključan u procesu praćenja zdravlja. Potom se proučavao utjecaj digitalizacije i digitalnih tehnologija na prevenciju bolesti, otkrivanje uzroka bolesti i praćenje zdravstvenog stanja osobe. U istom poglavlju se predstavljaju pametni uređaji koji koristeći digitalne tehnologije imaju cilj što uspješnije mjeriti i analizirati zdravstvene parametre osobe kako bi korisnicima pružili uvid u stanje vlastitog zdravlja, a stručnjacima omogućili preliminarnu dijagnostiku i beskontaktno praćenje zdravlja pacijenta. U praktičnom dijelu rada tj. istraživanju cilj je bio provjeriti pretpostavku da pametni uređaji, uz sve svoje prednosti koje digitalizacija nosi, mogu biti kompetentni s profesionalnim medicinskim uređajima kada je u pitanju mjerenje različitih zdravstvenih parametara koji se smatraju vitalnim parametrima za ljudskog zdravlje. Kombinacija pametnih medicinskih uređaja, integrativnog pristupa i aktivnog sudjelovanja pojedinca u procesu omogućuje bolje rezultate liječenja, veću učinkovitost zdravstvenog sustava i poboljšanje kvalitete života pacijenata.

Abstract (english)

The master's thesis explores the application of Industry 4.0 technologies in monitoring human health. The thesis initially presents different approaches to monitoring human health, discussing their advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, it identifies and describes the main health parameters necessary for the research, which involved measuring these parameters. The thesis emphasizes that an integrative approach involving various experts and active patient participation becomes crucial in the health monitoring process. The impact of digitalization and digital technologies on disease prevention, identification of causes, and monitoring of health status is then examined. The thesis introduces smart devices that utilize digital technologies to effectively measure and analyze an individual's health parameters, providing users with insights into their own health and enabling preliminary diagnosis and contactless monitoring by healthcare professionals. The aim of the research was to verify whether smart devices, with all their advantages brought by digitalization, can be competent compared to professional medical devices in measuring various health parameters that are considered vital for human health. The combination of smart medical devices, an integrative approach, and active individual participation in the process enables better treatment outcomes, greater healthcare system efficiency, and improved quality of life for patients.
