Abstract

Patients suffering from COPD benefit from the performance of any kind of physical activity. The 3D layer context (3DLC) model characterizes data from different domains in relation to their relevance for the clinical decision making process. We have used this model to show how data from an ambient activity system in the domestic environment can be used to provide better diagnoses and prognoses for COPD patients. As a proof of concept an experiment has been conducted to provide an individual intensity relation between household activities and telerehabilitation training on a bicycle ergometer. We have extracted features from the power data of the activities ironing and vacuuming to calculate the energy expenditure for the performance of these activities.
