Abstract :
This project deals with a new reliable health monitoring system designed for affordable low cost wireless patient monitoring system. The patient monitoring and patient care is one of the major fields which lack proper technology in rural India hospital and homes. The main cause of patient death in many parts in India is mainly due to lack of critical health care devices for monitoring the patient. This is due to 4´A´s- Affordability, Accessibility, Awareness and Availability. So this project deals with monitoring of the patient through wireless technology. The monitoring signals are finally obtained in Pc and Android mobile devices. A visualization module of the server program graphically displays the recorded biomedical signals on Android mobile devices used by patients and doctors at the end of the networks in real-time. Our approach is affordable for global health care solution is managed to process the large amount of biomedical signals through wireless body area network and mobile technology for daily lifestyle to users efficiently.
