RESUMO
This article presents the development process of an acquisition and data storage system managing clinical variables through a cloud storage service and a Personal Health Record (PHR) System. First, the paper explains how a Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) that captures data from two sensors corresponding to arterial pressure and heart rate is designed. Second, this paper illustrates how data collected by the WBAN are transmitted to a cloud storage service. It is worth mentioning that this cloud service allows the data to be stored in a persistent way on an online database system. Finally, the paper describes, how the data stored in the cloud service are sent to the Indivo PHR System, where they are registered and charted for future revision by health professionals. The research demonstrated the feasibility of implementing WBAN networks for the acquisition of clinical data, and particularly for the use of Web technologies and standards to provide interoperability with PHR Systems at technical and syntactic levels.

The objective of this paper is to describe the design and implementation of a Personal Health Record System (PHR-S) for supporting monitoring of blood glucose in diabetes mellitus type 2 patients. The paper describes a survey applied in order to elicit the specific ICT needs of Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 patients. Based on the requirements, a web application "GlucoseDataManager" was implanted and integrated into a local deployed IndivoHealth PHR-S platform.
