ABSTRACT:

Traditionally, for monitoring one’s health condition, one has to visit the hospitals and it is very hectic work and uncomfortable for every one especially for the patients and their relatives. For life style disease like hypertension and Blood Pressure, one need to daily monitor their health. Hence, monitoring patients remotely is the need of Era, where there is the huge use of ICT in every sector of life. With the use of information and communication technology, the health care systems have produced timely and reliable systems not only in the hospitals, but can be used now in the homes, and even in the workplace of the patients, which in turn is proving to be cost-effective.The main objective of this paper is to build a wireless heart monitoring system, for monitoring patients at any location, any time. This paper has proposed a model for monitoring heart patients using Internet of Things (IoT), which would help them to keep track of their record in real time. In this system, Sensors are used to continuously monitor the patient’s pulse rate and resonance frequency. This real-time monitoring of a patient’s heart would reduce the chances of heart attack and will save many lives. The data collected from this systems can be used further for the analysis purpose. This paper shows that many short coming of traditional system can be overcome by using such remote ICT based healthcare system.
