Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Life expectancy has steadily increased in the majority of countries over the last few decades as a result of vast improvements in medical care, public health initiatives, and individual, community hygiene practices as well.
 OBJECTIVES: An effective and inexpensive alternative to institutional care was remote health surveillance, which relies on non-invasive and wearable sensors, actuators, and modern statement and information technology to allow the elderly to remain in their familiar homes.
 METHODS: With the use of open-source software, widely accessible minimal chipsets, and remote data warehouses for storing, this study details the design and construction of e-health apparel for health monitoring.
 RESULTS: By utilizing these devices, medical professionals will be able to track vital signs in real-time, evaluate patients' status, and provide feedback even when they are physically located in a different facility. The next step included creating a wearable system and the garment platform it would be used on.
 CONCLUSION: More features were implemented in the form of a smartphone application. This research has potential application in broadening the scope of wearable healthcare systems by investigating the role of apparel in this area.
