A Proof of Concept system has been developed for the remote monitoring of patients, which incorporates a protocol for the automatic detection of the onset of infection and automatic e-mail and pager alerts.  The system has been successfully tested without patients in GST and has undergone a trial within QinetiQ using volunteers. It is recommended that this solution is integrated with aspects from the rest of the DTfH project such as the Cancer Network Clinical Information System (CNCIS) and COPD monitoring project. For example, the incorporation of monitored information into the Specialist Electronic Patient Record (SpEPR), based on the cancer minimum data set, would provide a master record available in real time and accessible to all appropriate staff.
