Patient Monitoring System
[attachment=67434]
INTRODUCTION
Recently, the health care sensors are playing a vital role in hospitals. The patient monitoring systems is one of the major improvements because of its advanced technology. A wireless patient monitoring system to measure heartbeat and body temperature of the patient by using embedded technology is developed.
So we are here, just connecting the temperature sensor and heartbeat sensor so that simultaneously we can monitor the patient’s condition and hence ruling out the use of the thermometer and other devices to check the condition of the patient.
This project describes the design of a simple, low-cost microcontroller based heart rate & body temperature measuring device with LCD output. Heart rate of the subject is measured from the index finger using IRD (Infra-Red Device sensors and the rate is then averaged and displayed on a text based LCD).
The device alarms when the heart beat & the body temperature exceed the provided threshold value. This threshold value is defined by the programmer at the time of programming the microcontroller 89C8051. The threshold value given for the project is as 20 to 120 pulses per minute for heart beat indication & 18°C to 38°C for temperature.
This information i.e. the Heart Rate & the Body Temperature is then transmitted wirelessly to the doctor which in not in the vicinity of the patient through GSM technique. The sensors measure the information and transmit it through GSM Modem on the same frequency as on which cell phones work.
APPLICATIONS
The project is used to transfer the information from the transmitter side to the receiver side wirelessly. The project is an advance application of GSM based DISPLAY TOOLKIT.
In our project we are basically focusing on the situation where the where the patient(s) and the doctor are at the distant location and it is quite necessary to give the details about the patient(s) heartbeat and the temperature to the doctor. In this type of situation where the information becomes the indispensable part of the life, this project emerges out as best to acknowledge the doctor with his correct and the fast information.
Besides this if made certain changes in the project, it can also be used as way of acknowledging the students of the institutes with the fastest mode of information regarding certain Notices. Again it is the application of GSM BASED DISPLAY TOOLKIT.
Looking into current trend of information transfer in the campus, it is seen that important notice take time to be displayed in the notice boards. This latency is not expected in most of the cases and must be avoided.
Also the electronics displays which are currently used are programmable displays which need to be reprogrammed each time a new notice comes. The process of reprogramming includes burning the microcontroller again and again. This makes it inefficient for immediate information transfer, and thus the display board loses its importance
