Vishal Ambala, Kaustubh Churi, Prasad Virkar, Pankajkumar Gupta . Patient Monitoring using GSM and ZiGBEE and Data Logging System. National Conference on Role of Engineers in National Building. NCRENB2016, 3 (July 2016), 28-33.
In hospitals, considering the huge campus, it is very difficult for the doctors to reach every patient for their daily updates and its very time consuming to monitor all the patients on daily basis. Home care services are growing up in the past years. Contemplating the patient-family pair, it represents a solution to the medical problems of the modern life. Also in critical situations, it is very important to report the live health status of the patient to the doctor and provide immediate medical help to the patient during the critical hour. Statistics reveal that everyday many lives are affected because the patients did not get timely and proper help. This paper shows design and development of a reliable, energy efficient patient monitoring system. It is able to send parameters of patient in real time. It enables the doctors to monitor patient's health parameters (temperature, heartbeat etc. ) in real time. The paper presents the design and implementation of a Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) system based on wireless technology using a cellular phone, to send an SMS (Short Message Service) to the medical staff. The proposed system combines two commonly used technologies namely, Global System for Mobile (GSM) and ZigBee Technology
