IoT based Resuscitation and Hypoxemia Diagnosis System using Embedded Microcontroller Architecture and IFTTT Implementation

Abstract

In recent times, the World has taken a critical blow from the novel Coronavirus. Moreover, with its research ongoing and multiple variants emerging, uncertainty is on the rise. Lung damage and cardiac issues occur during and post recovery which is why there is a requirement to constantly monitor the patient’s vitals. This also applies to patients suffering from other lung diseases and heart conditions. They need immediate attention to avoid complications and further deterioration in their health. The proposed system aims to do so by observing the health parameters such as oxygen saturation in blood and heartbeat constantly and making the data available for the user by displaying it. In case of abnormality, it alerts the person related to the patient about the developments and relays the required information to help like symptom details and the patient’s location, this ensures that actions are taken quickly. Simultaneously, it provides assistance in breathing during the interlude till professional help arrives and the patient receives the necessary treatment. This is achieved with a combination of sensors, modules and other components integrated with a microcontroller as well as the implementation of Internet of Things (IoT) using a web service.
