IOT Based Smart Wearable Health Monitoring System for Corona Diagnosis

Abstract

Abstract: Corona virus or COVID-19 has shaken the entire world. According to a survey by WHO, more than 121 countries have been affected by the virus. The death toll keeps on rising in many countries whereas in some they are going down gradually. And among those who have lost their lives to the virus includes healthcare workers too. They are mainly getting infected due to close contact with covid patients. Over here comes the need for proper isolation and proper maintenance of social distancing. Globally strict lockdowns are being practiced and this has helped us to bring down the positivity rate, which points out that the maintenance of proper isolation and quarantine periods are of utmost importance. This is where the project plays its role in fighting the virus by providing remote diagnosis measurements of people in quarantine and thereby minimizing the need for healthcare workers to be in direct contact with patients. This project is a health band with an app named Corona Secure. COVID-19 is associated with particular symptoms: Fever, cough, shortness of breath or other breathing problems, chills, muscle pain, sore throat, loss of taste or smell, Heart rate (above 100 bpm), Oxygen saturation <92% .We will be able to use this device from staying inside our homes and it will track very essential health parameters such as body temperature, heartbeat, and sound sensor. These data will be sent to our cloud servers along, and with this the patient will have to fill up a survey form enquiring about some common symptoms of the coronavirus as per WHO guidelines. This will be continued for a normal quarantine period of 14 days as advised by WHO.
