USING RFID TO TRACK PATIENT’S HEALTH
Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 12
Abstract
When we hear the word patient, the first thing that strikes our mind is a hospital and lots of treatments and tests that are being done on him/her by doctors. In a hospital, there are many patients and these patients have different health problems. A hospital has to maintain all the health records, all the information about the doctors who are treating the patients and what all medications have been prescribed to the patient. This generally becomes very difficult at a certain point of time, especially when all the minute details have to be passed on. To manage the whole process of maintaining, updating and sharing the patient’s archives with doctors and families of patients, we have designed a centralized system by making the use of RFID technology. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification and is known for its unique ID number. Using this technology, firstly the patient is monitored as soon as he/she arrives at the hospital. Every patient who is admitted to the hospital is provided with a Unique RFID number and all the details about the respective patient is stored and maintained at a centralized location. When the patient leaves the hospital or has to be transferred to another hospital, the information is still stored in the hospital’s database. In the second part of this system, the patient’s health is continuously tracked. The patient’s body temperature and his/her heartbeat is continuously monitored. If there is a case of emergency, the patient is provided with assistance immediately. The normal range has been defined in the system and as soon as the normal range is deviated, a SOS message is sent to the closet hospital with its location and also to a relative with the help of GSM/GPS module.
