本論文開發了一套健康照護整合系統，以一嵌入式系統平台為中心，連結相關之生理訊號量測儀器（如電子血壓計以及溫度計等），除了可自動記錄量測數據，並可透過網路將數據傳送至遠端伺服器（如醫院），因此醫師可透過電腦端之人機介面觀察使用者的健康狀況。此系統平台也具有照片播放及音樂播放之功能，並有提醒使用者作量測和用藥提醒之功能；本系統使用Microsoft - Windows CE作業系統，透過藍牙及ZigBee等無線傳輸功能與量測儀器連結，達到異質傳輸功能整合，使其能夠更方便地與更多的儀器整合。人性化的操作介面可以讓家中的年長者也能輕易的操作，達到健康管理與健康照護的目的。
　　系統開發結果透過問卷調查及主觀評量驗證，功能評量方面在整體觀感得到86.42分，健康照護功能得到87.38分。在系統使用性尺度量表上得到81.98分，說明了本系統功能的實用性及可行性。

　　In this thesis, we developed a healthcare system platform. It's based on an embedded system platform, and it can connect to related physiological measurement devices such as blood pressure meter and ear thermometer. In addition to record measuring result automatically, through internet this system can send the results to the remote database such as in hospital. Therefore, doctors can easy to observe user's health situation through graphic user interface (GUI). This embedded system platform has photo and music player. It also can remind user to take medicine and do measurements. We ported Microsoft Windows CE operating system on this platform and integrated Bluetooth and ZigBee wireless transmission interface. Therefore, this platform can link more devices due to heterogeneous wireless transmission. Through GUI, the elderly can easily to use this platform to achieve the objective of health management and healthcare.
　　We use questionnaire and subjective assessment to evaluate our system. In functional assessment, overall impression is 86.42 points, healthcare function is 87.38 points. The System Usability Scale got 81.98 points. Therefore the subjective assessment results illustrate this system has good practicality and feasibility.
