Internet-of-Things (IoT) is profoundly redefining the way we create, consume,
and share information. Health aficionados and citizens are increasingly using
IoT technologies to track their sleep, food intake, activity, vital body
signals, and other physiological observations. This is complemented by IoT
systems that continuously collect health-related data from the environment and
inside the living quarters. Together, these have created an opportunity for a
new generation of healthcare solutions. However, interpreting data to
understand an individual's health is challenging. It is usually necessary to
look at that individual's clinical record and behavioral information, as well
as social and environmental information affecting that individual. Interpreting
how well a patient is doing also requires looking at his adherence to
respective health objectives, application of relevant clinical knowledge and
the desired outcomes.
We resort to the vision of Augmented Personalized Healthcare (APH) to exploit
the extensive variety of relevant data and medical knowledge using Artificial
Intelligence (AI) techniques to extend and enhance human health to presents
various stages of augmented health management strategies: self-monitoring,
self-appraisal, self-management, intervention, and disease progress tracking
and prediction. kHealth technology, a specific incarnation of APH, and its
application to Asthma and other diseases are used to provide illustrations and
discuss alternatives for technology-assisted health management. Several
prominent efforts involving IoT and patient-generated health data (PGHD) with
respect converting multimodal data into actionable information (big data to
smart data) are also identified. Roles of three components in an evidence-based
semantic perception approach- Contextualization, Abstraction, and
Personalization are discussed.

IoT has created opportunities for healthcare solutions but interpreting data requires clinical, behavioral, and environmental information. Augmented Personalized Healthcare (APH) uses AI techniques to enhance human health with self-monitoring, self-appraisal, self-management, intervention, and disease progress tracking and prediction. The kHealth technology and its application to Asthma are used to provide illustrations for technology-assisted health management.
