Why the study?
There is a need for an improved system to monitor changes in health parameters irrespective of time and location to forestall abnormalities and cater for emergencies.
This paper describes the technical design of a low-cost, microcontroller-based prototype for remote heartbeat monitoring and automated SMS alerting via GSM technology.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Heartbeat monitoring with SMS alerts may aid remote surveillance; leaves open clinical efficacy and safety in prospective trials.
Health related issues are utmost importance to man daily routine, and is essential to his existence and influence and thus he has sought for an improved system that would monitor the changes in health parameters irrespective of time and location and it provides the measures that will forestall abnormalities and cater for emergencies. This works in presents a system that is capable of providing an real time application in monitoring the heartbeat with improvements of an alarm and SMS alert. It is designed in such way that the heartbeat/pulse rate is sensed and measured by the sensor which sense the signals to the control unit for proper processing and determination of the heartbeat rate which is displayed on a LCD, it then proceeds to alert by an alarm and SMS send to the mobile phone of the medical expert or health personnel , if and only the threshold value of the heartbeat rate is maximally exceeded. This system proposes continuous, real time, remote, safe and accurate monitoring of the heartbeat rate.
