A Framework for Medical Assistance using Internet of Things Architecture
Journal Title: International journal of Emerging Trends in Science and Technology - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 11
Abstract
Remote monitoring of patient is one of the important areas of research in the medical field. With the advancements in the field of sensors and semiconductors it is possible to monitor a patient and provide him medication. The network of sensors, actuators and other communication devices is called Internet of Things (IoT). This technology has revolutionized the health care industry by providing connected health technologies. With the devices connected, we can have a faster data transfer and easy access to the data. This paper proposes a framework for medical assistance using Internet of Things. This IoT based system collects vital parameters from the patient and stores this information in a server which can then be accessed by the doctor to provide medicines. Parameters such as temperature, humidity, heart rate, and blood pressure are gathered and posted into the cloud. ESP8266 Wi-Fi module has been used as a communication device. The results show that the system developed is working in par with the conventional monitoring systems.
