Portable Device to Monitor Vital Health Parameters

In this survey paper, we will develop a portable device to monitor the vital health parameters of a patient. The system can be used to monitor vital parameters such as blood pressure, pulse rate, body temperature and pulse oximetry. Most of the time patients are unaware of their actual conditions. It is not necessary that doctors are available by their side every time. Now-a-days most of the disease are curable if detected in time. So we have tried to design a system that gives information about his/her physical condition. The device gives information of the vital parameters. This device provides a low-cost, easily accessible human health monitor solution bridging the gaps between the patients and the doctors. The solution is based on the Raspberry Pi and integrated sensor ICs. It also comprises of blue-tooth module to share data. Home care technologies play important role in the home-based health care approach. The main goal is to develop a cost-effective user-friendly health system to serve the elderly people in the community.
