Abstract

Health Monitoring Systems (HMS) is becoming increasingly ubiquitous supported by recent technological advances and influenced by high healthcare costs. Health is a necessary aspect in our daily routine and it would make it easier for people to act upon the condition that they are having with these systems. This research paper aims to develop and design a scalable and feasible model of an HMS through advanced sensor and communication technology. The Proof of Concept can be achieved by utilizing low-cost sensors and microprocessors such as heart rate sensors, MAX30205 body temperature sensor, and the NodeMCU. The NodeMCU is an amazing little chip that has onboard WiFi capabilities and will be the way in communicating to Adafruit IO through MQTT protocol. Adafruit IO has feeds and dashboards that will serve as a visual representation of the metadata about the sensor data you push to Adafruit IO from the NodeMCU board. This technology can increase the capacity of physicians to treat and monitor more patients, can offer better access to healthcare, and assures patients to get that daily information about their conditions.
