An IoT-based remote health monitoring system was developed to allow continuous home monitoring of vital signs, including ECG and SpO2.
Health care is the most important part of human life. The Internet of Things is used to interconnect advanced medical facilities to give efficient health care services to the people. In this project, a Remote Health Monitoring System is developed which mainly consists of health monitoring sensors and a Microcontroller. The patient's body temperature, Electrocardiogram, heart rate and Oxygen saturation in blood (SpO2) are monitored, displayed and stored in the system. These parameters are sent to the website using Arduino Ethernet Shield accessed by the health care providers. Hence, the doctor can provide necessary medical assistance to the patients. Deaths due to cardiac diseases and health condition related to abnormal heart rate are increasing. So, regular health checkup for the patients is necessary. Due to the prevailing pandemic situation, it is highly difficult for a patient to visit hospital or health care centers. This system helps to monitor the state of the patient from the comfort of their homes and the doctor can analyze the health data, provide medical assistance and recommend medicines.
