Resumo
Telemonitoring interventions in patients allow to collect and transmit information to health professionals bringing recognized advantages in the personalization of health care services. Those applications deal with sensitive data, raising ethical and legal issues that must be considered. Guarantee the quality and accuracy of the data collected in telemonitoring and ensure confidentiality to protect the patient privacy is a fundamental requirement. The patient’s informed consent implies that he is aware of the potential benefits and risks of the system, how telemonitoring will be used, what data will be collected and with whom it will be shared. This work proposes a database model ensuring that sensitive data is handled securely and accessible only to authorized health professionals.
