Abstract
WSN is deployed in every sector of human life, an instance of which is in medical device network. With the increasing requirement of handling large patient data and faster data conversion in the hospital and medical diagnostic centres, there is a need for innovative and low-cost ways of interconnecting medical equipment, middleware and network support. Hospitals and medical diagnostic centres require cost-effective sensor network for handling large patient data and fast conversion. The high cost of medical devices, equipment and lack of interoperability and portability necessitates new approaches. This paper presents low-cost and portable approach for medical data transmission from devices to middleware using IoT support and conversion to universal standard called Health Level-7 (HL7) and a method to store in cloud.
