Healthcare Monitoring Using Internet of Things

Abstract

In recent years, technology has developed and created human life an easy and luxury one. People can use a lot of electronic gadgets in their day-to-day life to upgrade their lifestyle. We can also use them for our health care with the help of smart techniques. IoT is a smart system consisting of a different type of sensors and is a real-world application connected with each other through the Internet via wired or wireless network structure. In India, the cause of death is many diseases probably. In that, some diseases may be curable. The chance of death will be reduced when the problem identified is instant. For an example, heart attacks, the patient cannot be able to describe his situation. For that, we proposed a healthcare monitoring system, in which the tracking place of the patient and his health conditions will be monitored. In a hospital, the healthcare monitoring system is very essential to observe the patient’s physiological parameters. The smart hospital system (SHS) is two method phenomena, first to track the people by automatic identification and biomedical devices in the hospital, second deal with the patient’s monitoring. Wireless sensor network (WSN), radio frequency identification (RFID), ultra-high frequency (UHF), global system for mobile communication (GSM) and the smart mobile are the technologies used in the implementation of smart healthcare systems. The second is a monitoring system that will collect the data, in real time. We can also get environmental parameters and also the patient’s physiological conditions with the help of ultra-low-power hybrid sensing network (HSN) composed of UHF, RFID functionalities.
