Abstract

The handiness of mercantile mechanical ventilators is highly limited in low-income countries due to high rate in the price of its affordability. This factor affects the treatment of so many patients suffering from chronic respiratory syndrome. In this research, a low- cost and easy to use pressure ventilator coupled with a remote health monitoring system to assist the doctors check up on the patients is developed. There is need to maximize the availability of the ventilators in low-income countries at an affordable price tag. This system was developed with the aid of an Arduino nano, ESP8266 based NodeMcu microcontroller, high pressure blower, pressure transducers, humidity and temperature sensor. The developed system was evaluated and compared with existing one, using an actively breathing patient simulator as it mimics through a range of respiratory diseases. In the end, we were able to design a low-cost smart health monitoring system that incorporates ventilator and health vitals monitor. Our Design was implemented and verified to be working and equally satisfying all the specified requirements.
