Das Ziel der vorliegenden Erfindung bzw. des Projektes »Mobile Medical Monitoring (MMM)« besteht in der prototypischen Realisierung einer umfassenden telemedizinischen Monitoring-Lösung:The aim of the present invention or the project »Mobile Medical Monitoring (MMM) «consists of the prototypical realization of a comprehensive telemedical Monitoring solution:

- – Die zentrale Empfangsstation (ein Serverrechner) befindet sich in einem klinikumsnahem Dienstleistungszentrum, in dem die medizinischen Daten eingehen, gespeichert und visualisiert werden. Es findet eine sofortige Auswertung aller eingehenden Daten statt, bei der durch intelligente Alarmalgorithmen eine verzögerungsfreie Erkennung kritischer Situationen ermöglicht wird. Auf der daraus entstehenden Datenbasis können darüber hinaus retrospektive Analysen der gespeicherten Daten zur Generierung standardisierter Behandlungsrichtlinien (evidence based medicine) und zur Durchführung klinischer Studien ausgeführt werden.- The central receiving station (a server computer) is in one Clinical service center in which the medical Incoming data, saved and visualized. It finds one immediate evaluation of all incoming data instead of when intelligent alarm algorithms a delay-free detection of critical Situations becomes. The resulting database can also be used for retrospective analyzes the stored data to generate standardized treatment guidelines (evidence based medicine) and to conduct clinical studies.

Aus technischer Sicht ist als Übertragungsbasis zunächst eine geeignete, bereits existierende Funktechnologie zu wählen. Da die völlige Bewegungsfreiheit des Patienten eine Basisanforderung von MMM ist, kann auf Technologien für Nahbereichsfunk wie z.B. WLAN nach IEEE 802.11b, HomeRF oder Bluetooth nicht zurückgegriffen werden. Sie setzen aufgrund ihrer geringen Sendereichweite eine stationäre Basisstation bzw. einen Accesspoint in der Nähe des Patienten voraus.From a technical point of view it is the basis of transmission first to choose a suitable, already existing radio technology. There the complete Freedom of movement for the patient is a basic requirement of MMM on technologies for Short-range radio such as WLAN according to IEEE 802.11b, HomeRF or Bluetooth not resorted to become. Due to their short transmission range, they use one stationary Base station or an access point near the patient ahead.
Bevorzugt ist deshalb eine flächendeckend verfügbare und frei zugängliche Funktechnologie, nämlich der herkömmlicher Zellfunk- bzw. Handynetze. wie z.B. GSM/HSCSD oder GPRS/UMTS. Sie ist weltweit weitgehend flächendeckend verfügbar und kostengünstig realisierbar.It is therefore preferred to cover the entire area available and freely accessible Radio technology, namely the conventional Cellular radio or cell phone networks. such as. GSM / HSCSD or GPRS / UMTS. she is largely nationwide available and inexpensive realizable.
Im Hinblick auf eine Datenübertragung kann hier zwischen sog. CSD und PSD Methoden unterschieden werden:With regard to data transmission A distinction can be made between so-called CSD and PSD methods:
- – CSD (Circuit Switched Data): Vor bzw. nach einer Datenübertragung ist ein dedizierter Verbindungsauf- bzw. -abbau notwendig und die Abrechnung findet zeitbasiert statt. GSM in den verschiedenen Varianten (mit 900/1800/1900 MHz) und HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switched Data) sind Vertreter dieses Übertragungsmodus.- CSD (Circuit Switched Data): Before or after a data transfer a dedicated connection or disconnection is necessary and the Billing takes place based on time. GSM in the different variants (with 900/1800/1900 MHz) and HSCSD (High Speed Circuit Switched Data) are representatives of this transmission mode.
- – PSD (Packet Switched Data): Nach einem einmaligen Verbindungsaufbau bleibt die Verbindung dauerhaft bestehen (always-online), d.h. Daten können bei Bedarf ohne vorherigen Verbindungsausbau versandt werden und die Abrechnung erfolgt nach dem übertragenen Datenvolumen. GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) und das zukünftige UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) sind Vertreter dieses neueren Übertragungsmodus.- PSD (Packet Switched Data): After a one-time connection establishment the connection remains permanent (always-online), i.e. Data can can be sent if necessary without prior connection expansion and billing takes place after the transferred Data volume. GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) and the future UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) are representatives of this newer transmission mode.
Ein kritischer Punkt ist auch die Verfügbarkeit der Funkverbindung, wobei zwischen der Erreichbarkeit des Funknetzes an sich und der Verfügbarkeit eines freien Funkkanals zu unterscheiden ist. Während der Einfluss auf den ersten Punkt bei Betreten eines Funkloches z.B. in einem Tunnel nur begrenzt möglich ist, spielen beim zweiten Punkt insbesondere Priorisierungen durch QoS-Mechanismen seitens des Netzbetreibers eine wichtige Rolle.Another critical point is that Availability the radio connection, with the availability of the radio network in itself and availability a free radio channel is to be distinguished. While the influence on the first point when entering a radio hole e.g. in a tunnel only possible to a limited extent prioritize in the second point QoS mechanisms on the part of the network operator play an important role.
Ein großes Problem stellt die, verglichen mit herkömmlichen kabelgebundenen Netztechnologien wie z.B. LAN (Ethernet nach IEEE 802.3), geringe Bandbreite der oben aufgeführten Funknetze dar.A big problem is the, compared with conventional wired network technologies such as LAN (Ethernet according to IEEE 802.3), low bandwidth of the radio networks listed above.
GSM besitzt eine Bruttodatenrate von nur 9600 kbit/s. Durch die Bündelung von mehreren GSM-Kanälen erreichen HSCSD und GPRS höhere Datenraten, wobei die Anzahl der maximal bündelbaren Kanäle ist dabei primär durch die Hardware der mobilen Station MS (Handy, Funkmodul) beschränkt ist. Die Anzahl ist dabei im Down- bzw. Uplink (d.h. vom Netzprovider zur MS bzw. von der MS zum Netzprovider) verschieden und liegt derzeit bei HSCSD bei 3/1 oder 2/2 und bei GPRS bei 4/2 Kanälen. Die daraus resultierende größere Downlinkkapazität ist durch das historische Anwendungsfeld, nämlich das mobile Internetsurfen entstanden. Bei MMM ist jedoch die Kapazität des Uplinks von entscheidender Bedeutung, da es primär um den Transport von medizinischen Messdaten von der MS zum Dienstleistungszentrum geht.GSM has a gross data rate of only 9600 kbit / s. By bundling several GSM channels, HSCSD and GPRS achieve higher data rates, whereby the number of the maximum bundled channels is primarily limited by the hardware of the mobile station MS (cell phone, radio module). The number is different in the downlink or uplink (ie from the network provider to the MS or from the MS to the network provider) and is currently 3/1 or 2/2 for HSCSD and 4/2 channels for GPRS. The resulting larger downlink capacity is the result of the historical field of application, namely mobile internet surfing. With MMM, however, the capacity of the uplink is of crucial importance, since it is primarily about the transport of medical measurement data from the MS to the service center.
Zusätzlich wird die Bruttodatenrate durch notwendige Netzwerk- und Transportprotokolle wie TCP/IP gemindert. Der in der Realität erreichbare Durchsatz hängt außerdem von Faktoren wie der Netzauslastung des Netzbetreibers, der Antennenqualität der MS und ihren aktuellen Umgebungsbedingungen (z.B. Funkabschattungen und Nutzerdichte in der aktuellen Funkzelle) ab, so dass die in Tabelle 1 angegebenen Nettodatenraten als Mittelwerte zu verstehen sind und starken Schwankungen unterliegen.In addition, the gross data rate mitigated by necessary network and transport protocols such as TCP / IP. The one in reality achievable throughput depends Moreover of factors such as the network operator's network utilization, the antenna quality of the MS and their current environmental conditions (e.g. radio shading and user density in the current radio cell), so that the in Net data rates given in Table 1 are to be understood as mean values and are subject to strong fluctuations.
Die derzeit realisierbaren maximalen Brutto- und Nettodatenraten verschiedener Zellfunkverfahren sind in der folgenden Tabelle aufgeführt.The currently realizable maximum Gross and net data rates of different cellular radio methods are listed in the following table.

Wegen ihrer weiten Verbreitung und der damit einfachen Integration in bestehende Netzstrukturen werden als Netzwerk- und Transportprotokoll vorzugsweise TCP/IP gewählt.Because of their wide distribution and easy integration into existing network structures TCP / IP is preferably selected as the network and transport protocol.
Die Anforderungen an das darauf aufsetzende Protokoll der Anwendungsschicht umfassen im wesentlichen:The requirements of what is based on it Application layer protocols essentially include:
- 1) die Übertragung sowohl kontinuierlich als auch in Intervallen erfasster Vitaldaten unterschiedlichster Art bezüglich Datenformat (Byte, Word etc.) und Samplingrate.1) the transfer both continuously and at intervals of vital data recorded of all kinds regarding Data format (byte, word etc.) and sampling rate.
- 2) die bidirektionale Übertragung von Betriebsparametern zwischen MS und DLZ bezüglich a) Verbindungsmanagement: Telefonnummer des Netzproviders, Login-Passwort, IP-Adresse und Zertifikate MedShirts und des Empfangsrechners b) Betriebsparameter des MedShirts: Batteriestand, Uhrzeit etc. c) Patientendaten d) Sendemodus: kontinuierliche Versendung, Push/Poll-Mechanismus e) medizinischer Sensorik: Gerätetypen der am MedShirt angeschlossenen Medizingeräte und gerätespezifische Optionen wie z.B. Messintervalle eines EKG-Gerätes2) the bidirectional transmission of operating parameters between MS and DLZ regarding a) Connection management: Phone number of the network provider, login password, IP address and certificates MedShirts and the receiving computer b) operating parameters of the MedShirts: battery level, time, etc. c) patient data d) Send mode: continuous send, push / poll mechanism e) medical sensors: device types the medical devices connected to the MedShirt and device-specific options such as e.g. Measuring intervals of an EKG device
Bei der Übertragung von z.B. kontinuierlich aufgenommenen EKG-Rohdaten kann zwischen folgenden Ansätzen unterschieden werden:When transferring e.g. continuous ECG raw data recorded can differentiate between the following approaches become:
- kontinuierliche Versendung: es findet keine Zwischenspeicherung der Daten im MedShirt statt. Diese Variante setzt eine permanent verfügbare Funkverbindung voraus und kann bei zeitabhängig berechneten Tarifen (GSM, HSCSD) zu hohen Kosten führen.Continuous dispatch: none is found Data is stored in the MedShirt instead. This variant sets a permanently available Radio connection ahead and can be calculated with time-based tariffs (GSM, HSCSD) lead to high costs.
- – Datenpush in festen Intervallen: das MedShirt speichert die Rohdaten und versendet sie in variablen, aber festen Zeitintervallen; es kann daher stufenlos zwischen einer Realtime-Übertragung und einem offline-Monitoring (Datenübertragung z.B. ein Mal pro Tag) ein entsprechender Betriebsmodus eingestellt werden.- Data push at fixed intervals: the MedShirt stores the raw data and sends it at variable, but fixed time intervals; it can therefore be steplessly between a real-time transmission and an offline Mon monitoring (data transmission, for example, once a day) an appropriate operating mode can be set.
- – Datenpull durch den Empfangsrechner: wie beim Datenpush, nur dass die Verbindung und der Datenversand nicht durch das Medshirt sondern durch das DLZ initiiert wird.- data pull through the receiving computer: as with the data push, only that the connection and the data transmission not through the Medshirt but through the DLZ is initiated.
Existierende Standards wie z.B. das in Krankenhäusern verwendete HL7, das für den sicheren, vertraulichen und asynchronen Austausch von medizinischen Daten zwischen Ärzten konzipierte Healthcare Professionals Protocol oder die Übertragung via XML sind für andere Einsatzbereiche konzipiert und deshalb für dieses Szenario nur bedingt geeignet.Existing standards such as the in hospitals used HL7 that for the secure, confidential and asynchronous exchange of medical Data between doctors designed Healthcare Professionals Protocol or the transfer via XML are for other areas of application are designed and therefore only conditionally for this scenario suitable.
Wegen der oben angesprochenen geringen Bandbreite der Funkstrecke empfiehlt es sich die Daten vor ihrem Versand zu komprimieren bzw. reduzieren. Dies führt zur Verringerung der Übertragungskosten und der Übertragungszeit, was im Falle einer medizinisch kritischen Situation die Reaktionszeit verkürzen kann.Because of the minor mentioned above Bandwidth of the radio link it is recommended the data in front of it Compress or reduce shipping. This leads to a reduction in transmission costs and the transmission time, what the response time in the case of a medically critical situation shorten can.

Zur verlustlosen Kompression stehen die bekannten, weit verbreiteten und frei verfügbaren Algorithmen wie z.B. (adaptives) Huffman-Coding und Lempel-Ziv (LZ-77, LZ-88/LZ-Welch) zur Verfügung. Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass sich die Unterschiede der Kompressionsverfahren bezüglich der Kompressionsrate bei verhältnismäßig geringen Datenmengen von weit unter 500 kByte je übertragenem Datenpaket, wie sie bei MMM auftreten, kaum ins Gewicht fallen. Aufgrund der häufig sehr beschränkten Speicher- und Rechenkapazitäten mobiler Endgeräte sind deshalb einfachere und damit schnellere Kompressionsalgorithmen zu bevorzugen.Stand for lossless compression the well-known, widespread and freely available algorithms such as (adaptive) Huffman coding and Lempel-Ziv (LZ-77, LZ-88 / LZ-Welch) to disposal. To summarize tell yourself that the differences in compression methods in terms of the compression rate at relatively low Amounts of data far below 500 kByte per transmitted data packet, such as they occur at MMM, are hardly significant. Because of the often very limited Storage and computing capacities mobile devices are therefore simpler and therefore faster compression algorithms prefer.
Die Beachtung von Aspekten der Datensicherheit sind gerade im medizinischen Umfeld von besonderer Bedeutung. Insbesondere bei der drahtlosen Übertragung von Daten ist die Gewährleistung der Vertraulichkeit wegen einer erhöhten Anfälligkeit der Funkstrecke gegenüber Abhörversuchen zu beachten.Attention to data security aspects are particularly important in the medical environment. In particular in wireless transmission of data is the guarantee confidentiality due to an increased vulnerability of the radio link to eavesdropping attempts to consider.
Im GSM-Netz und auch in dem darauf aufbauenden GPRS-Netz wird der Datenstrom zwischen der mobilen Station und den Netzkomponenten des Netzbetreibers durch ein A5/2 genanntes Stromchiffrierverfahren verschlüsselt. Während dies bereits einen grundlegenden Schutz darstellt gibt es bereits seit einigen Jahren Zweifel an der Sicherheit dieses Verfahrens. So wurde z.B. von Adi Shamir bereits im Jahr 2000 ein theoretischer Angriff auf eine schwächere Variante von AS/2 namens AS/1 publiziert. Allerdings wird zur Zeit an der Standardisierung eines neue Verfahrens namens A5/3 gearbeitet, welches auf dem Kasumi-Algorithmus basiert, der auch in zukünftigen UMTS-Netzen eingesetzt wird und als sehr sicher gilt.In the GSM network and also on it establishing GPRS network is the data stream between the mobile station and the network components of the network operator by an A5 / 2 called Stream encryption method encrypted. While this already represents basic protection for some years now, doubts about the safety of this procedure. For example, by Adi Shamir already in the year 2000 a theoretical one Attacking a weaker Variant of AS / 2 called AS / 1 published. However, currently worked on the standardization of a new process called A5 / 3, which is based on the Kasumi algorithm, which will also be used in future UMTS networks are used and are considered to be very secure.
Als zusätzliche Maßnahme ist trotzdem eine Erweiterung in Form einer Ende-zu-Ende Verschlüsselung wünschenswert. Diese kann z.B. auf der Basis von existierenden Lösungen wie SSL (Secure Socket Layer) oder IP-Sec-VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) realisiert werden, wobei diese Protokolle wiederum die für die Übertragung der medizinischen Rohdaten zur Verfügung stehende Nettobandbreite reduzieren.An extension is still an additional measure in the form of end-to-end encryption is desirable. This can e.g. based on existing solutions such as SSL (Secure Socket Layer) or IP-Sec VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) can be implemented, these protocols in turn being used for the transfer of medical Raw data available reduce the standing net bandwidth.
