Modern Technologies in Medicine and Law
Konečná, Klaudie ; Šustek, Petr (advisor) ; Salač, Josef (referee)
Modern Technologies in Medicine and Law Abstract This thesis deals with the application of modern technologies in medicine from the perspective of law. The primary aim of this work is to analyse the given provisions of the Civil Code, Act on Health Services and Act on Medical Devices, and also to determine whether the current legislation represents a suitable legal framework able to respond to the implementation of modern technology in the healthcare sector. In connection with this analysis, author presents possibilities of legislative changes that would respond to these modern technologies. The work inter alia deals with the question of whether the use of some of these technologies within the provision of healthcare services can be considered compliant with the principle of lege artis. In the first chapter, the reader is introduced to the topic of the thesis. This chapter defines the basic terms and presents an overview of the legislation related to the chosen topic. The second chapter represents a main part of the thesis, where author deals with the topic of artificial intelligence. In this chapter, the reader is acquainted with the term of artificial intelligence and the definition of its legal status. Subsequently, author evaluates whether the current legislation constitutes appropriate legal frameworks...

Accelerometer-based quality estimation and segmentation of ECG signal and compression of high-quality segments
Opravilová, Kamila ; Smital, Lukáš (referee) ; Němcová, Andrea (advisor)
This diploma thesis is devoted to segmentation of ECG signal based on its quality and compression of quality segments suitable for diagnostics (in telemedicine). A completely new approach is to use accelerometer data to estimate ECG signal quality. This is possible thanks to the Bittium Faros mobile recorder. It records both the ECG signal motion – accelerometric data. A total of 34 features were extracted from accelerometric data. Using these features the predictive model was taught to classify the ECG signal into 3 quality groups according to the level of noise. Quality segments were compressed. The wavelet transform in combination with high-frequency bands zeroing and length encoding was used as a compression method.

Application of telemedicine principles and technologies in the field of life insurance
Stašek, Filip ; Pavlíček, Antonín (advisor) ; Bach, Štěpán (referee)
The aim of diploma thesis is description and application of new product in life insurance area. This product is based on insured body parameters and physical activity monitoring with the assistance of wearables. Based on analysis of the data obtained by the insurance company, it can be setting appropriate and fair price of life insurance. Introduction describes principle of Internet of Things, which idea is reflected in next part described eHealth and telemedicine industries, where will be defined the possibilities of use information and communication technologies in these industries. One from the technologies using in these industries are already mentioned wearables, which can be used into the basic monitoring of individuals health condition. Except of health services is possible use these wearables in insurance industry too, where can monitor physical activity and selected body parameters of individuals and motivate them to exercise and healthy lifestyle in form of insurance discounts. The thesis points to current situation of using these devices at the local as well as global insurance market and possible principle of monitoring and analysis body parameters and lifestyle at Czech insurance market in the form of a new life insurance product.

Information and Communication Technologies in Social and Healthcare Services
Jakoubek, Rostislav ; Havrdová, Zuzana (advisor) ; Lejsal, Matěj (referee)
The thesis discusses how information and communication technologies (ICT or IT), nowadays transforms the form of health and social services. The specific arguments and social events are described, that leads today's health and social services closer to the use of ICT, influence and changes it. The work describes the latest trends linking ICT and social and health services in the areas of e-health, telemedicine, mobile health and assistive technologies. Specific tools and equipment and their practical use are presented. The practical part focuses on the introduction of specific- gadgets tablet care in caring for the elderly. Through direct interviews with caregivers and seniors is investigated how new technology is perceived by caregivers and seniors, how new technology equipment to care are introduced, and what positive and negative impact are the ICT has for facilities and the elderly. Key words assistive technology; eHealth; mHealth; patient engagement; population ageing; senior activation; senior care; telemedicine; touch tablets

Challenges in Optimal Bandwidth for Medical Image Transfer
Schindler, Vladimír ; Šimák, Boris (referee) ; Šárek, Milan (referee) ; Dostál, Otto (advisor)
This dissertation thesis is focused on the optimization of bandwidth parameters for the transport of medical image data between medical devices and remote data storage. As real and fully functional structure, which will be analyzed in this work. It was selected system MeDiMed (Metropolitan Digital Imaging System in Medicine). The thesis examines the operation of the small health organizations and their modalities, which use this system for remote data archiving. Traffic analysis is then statistically processed. The thesis also deals with the analysis of increasing the security during accessing health system, and assesses its impact on transmitted data. The effect of setting the transmission parameters and the most widely used types of ciphers on the transfer speed is also compared.

Zlepšování učinnosti prevence v telemedicíně
Nálevka, Petr ; Svátek, Vojtěch (advisor) ; Berka, Petr (referee) ; Štěpánková, Olga (referee) ; Šárek, Milan (referee)
This thesis employs data-mining techniques and modern information and communication technology to develop methods which may improve efficiency of prevention oriented telemedical programs. In particular this thesis uses the ITAREPS program as a case study and demonstrates that an extension of the program based on the proposed methods may significantly improve the program's efficiency. ITAREPS itself is a state of the art telemedical program operating since 2006. It has been deployed in 8 different countries around the world, and solely in the Czech republic it helped prevent schizophrenic relapse in over 400 participating patients. Outcomes of this thesis are widely applicable not just to schizophrenic patients but also to other psychotic or non-psychotic diseases which follow a relapsing path and satisfy certain preconditions defined in this thesis. Two main areas of improvement are proposed. First, this thesis studies various temporal data-mining methods to improve relapse prediction efficiency based on diagnostic data history. Second, latest telecommunication technologies are used in order to improve quality of the gathered diagnostic data directly at the source.
