Abstract
This work presents a healthcare monitoring system that can be used in an intensive care room. Biological information represented by ECG signals is achieved by ECG acquisition part . AD620 Instrumentation Amplifier selected due to its low current noise. The ECG signals of patients in the intensive care room are measured through wireless nodes. A base node is connected to the nursing room computer via a USB port , and is programmed with a specific firmware. The ECG signals are transferred wirelessly to the base node using nRF24L01+ wireless module. So, the nurse staff has a real time information for each patient available in the intensive care room. A star Wireless Sensor Network is designed for collecting ECG signals . ATmega328 MCU in the Arduino Uno board used for this purpose. Internet for things used For transferring ECG signals to the remote doctor, a Virtual Privet Network is established to connect the nursing room computer and the doctor computer . So, the patients information kept secure. Although the constructed network is tested for ECG monitoring, but it can be used to monitor any other signals.
