MODULAR HEALTH CARE MONITORING FOR PATIENTS USING IOT

Swathy P K, C Periasamy, Athira Mohan N

Abstract :

 Resent Developments in the data and communication technologies have led to the emergence of Internet of Things (IOT). The proposed system mainly aims at paralyzed patients who stay alone at home.The important health parameters are measured andinformation is transmittedthrough a wireless communication that is further transferred to a network via a Wi–Fi module, promoting the reception of the current status of the patient at any time. The different sensors viz temperature sensors ,heart beat sensor, respiration sensor, acceleration sensor andElectrocardiogram(ECG)are connected to the Peripheral Interface Controller (PIC) microcontroller board which gathers the information i.e. medical information from the sensors and the detected medical data is transmitted to the server. The sensors are interfaced to PICusingAnalog to DigitalConverter (ADC),Universal Asynchronous Receiver–Transmitter(UART), andInter–integrated Circuit(I²C) protocol. The parameter combinationscanbe selectedusing DualInline Package (DIP)switch and can be seen on the LCD screen. The data is sent to server using IOT device. The "Thing speak" is employed here to position the detected data into the server. Any abnormality in ECG signal is not only seen in ThingSpeak app but also sentas message to the nurse. < clear="all" style="page–eak–before:always; mso–eak–type:section–eak" />
