Remote Health Monitoring System using Non-Invasive Mobile Technology

Abstract

Keeping track of a patient’s vitals at home is a difficult task. Especially senior citizens have to be constantly monitored and their family needs to be alerted about their health status regularly, while at work. We propose a unique system that automates this task. The system we propose, uses sensors and Bluetooth technology which helps achieve this task. The system uses temperature as well as heart beat sensors to keep track of the patient’s vitals. If the temperature or heart beat of the patient increases above a safe value, the system automatically sends an alert message to the doctor and the family members about the patient and also shows the live heartbeat and temperature of the patient. Our remote health monitoring system effectively uses an Android application to monitor the patient’s vitals and helps in saving precious time in terms of life and death.
