Automated Health Monitoring System Using GSM and IOT

Abstract

The current hospital-centric healthcare becoming inefficient to treat those conditions that demand immediate treatment with the availability of 24 hours. like Comma or unconsciousness is the state wherein the patient cannot respond to any internal or external stimulus. In this situation, patients have no physical control over their entire bodies. Such cases require serious attention and continuous monitoring to save a patient’s life. There is a very big issue to monitoring these patients by hospital nurses and there is also the availability of nurses is low for every patient. So in this paper, we propose an automated health monitoring system based on a global system for mobile (GSM) and IoT. We also introduce the GSM module in our health monitoring system to send an alert message to the prospective doctor. We measure patients heart rate and temperature using IOT sensors which are connected with the XBEE module.
