  • Abstract
    In this paper, a fuzzy-based information monitoring and communication system especially developed for helping care givers to provide better care to the cared person in a healthcare center is introduced. The fuzzy-based expert system is also developed to conduct the analysis of care-receivers´ vital signs which are collected from the vital sign sensors carried by the cared person who maybe stays inside a health care center or at outdoor. The data set of vital signs for analysis includes blood sugar, temperature, diastolic pressure, and systolic pressure. During the monitoring period, the monitor center determines to send alert signals to a caregiver´s wireless device through wireless communications if any abnormal signal is detected after the analysis. As a result, the caregiver may thus be able quickly to respond to a cared person whenever he/she is in an emergence situation so that the rescue activity can be taken immediately.
