Abstract— Remote health monitoring system has been an
interesting topic recently among medical practitioners,
engineers as well as IT professionals. However, the
application of remote health monitoring system where
doctor’s can monitor patients’ vital signs via web is
practically new in Malaysia and other countries. Remote
health monitoring system is beneficial to the patients and
society where the implementation of such system will save
hospital bill, waiting time and reduce traffics in the
hospital. The objective of this project is to design and
develop body temperature measurement device that can be
observe by the doctor in real time as well as history data
via internet with an alarm/indication in case of
abnormalities. In the proposed health monitoring system,
heart rate and body temperature wireless sensors were
developed, however this paper only focus on body
temperature wireless monitoring system. The temperature
sensors will send the readings to a microcontroller using
Xbee wireless communication. To send the real-time data
to health monitoring database, wireless local area network
(WLAN) has been used. Arduino with Ethernet shield
based on IEEE 802.11 standard has been used for this
purpose. Test results from a group of voluntary shows the
real-time temperature reading successfully monitored
locally (at home) and remotely (at doctor’s computer) and
the readings are comparable to commercial thermometer. |
