A dynamic approach to medical data visualization and interaction

Modern web applications lack in flexibility when multiple medical data are shown at the same time. This could bring users to not consider important aspects of their health status and physicians to lose critical patients situations. The "Registro Elettronico Sanitario Personale" (RESP, in English "Personal Sanitary Electronic Registry") is a prototype of a web portal allowing patients and physicians to share health problems, diagnosis, prognosis, pharmaceutical therapies etc. Currently, it presents to patients a static web page. This paper proposes a prototype of a dynamic and fully customizable Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the RESP, in order to provide patients with current and historical medical data, and allow them to analyze their lifestyle. This real-time health monitoring give patients a better awareness on their overall status.
