----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract- Everyday many lives are affected by effectiveness of interventions and is used primarily in heart attacks and more importantly because the the intensive care unit and operating room. At least in patients did not get timely and proper helps. In India there is no system which continuously monitors the future what if due to lack of urgent service we the patient when patient is on move. are not able to save the patient. The answer to Wireless sensors are standard measurement tools such a problem is that the patient needs to be equipped with transmitters to convert signals from monitored constantly. Due to which we would be process control instruments into a radio able attend the patient immediately. Hence we transmission. The radio signal is interpreted by a introduce a system consisting of a wearable receiver which then converts the wireless signal to a device that will monitor the patient health. The specific, desired output, such as an analog current or wearable device will consist of different sensors data analysis via computer software. such as temperature sensors and pulse sensor. The device will send its data to the server through Wireless Sensors are also used in diagnosis. One of the android application of the patient. This data the applications of Wireless Sensors in the field of will be available to the doctor on his desktop. We Medicine is Remote Patient Monitoring. have made a prototype of an automated Remote monitoring, also known as selfelectronic system comprising a Bluetooth module monitoring/testing, enables medical professionals to and ATMEGA 32-bit AVR microcontroller which is monitor a patient remotely using various capable of measuring the Body Temperature and technological devices. This method is primarily used Heart Beat of a moving Patient no matter where for managing chronic diseases or specific conditions, the patient is and in case of emergency sends such as heart disease, diabetes mellitus, or asthma. wireless plea for the rescue/emergency help. These services can provide comparable health The system that we have proposed give an outcomes to traditional in-person patient encounters, advantage when compared to the wired system in supply greater satisfaction to patients, and may be the view that the doctor can get real time cost-effective. information about the parameters as well as In remote monitoring, sensors are used to capture location of the patient so that instant medication and transmit biometric data. For example, a tele-EEG can be provided. In case of emergency the patient device monitors the electrical activity of a patient’s can be tracked using his latitudes and longitudes. brain and then transmits that data to a specialist. This could be done in either real time or the data could be Keywords—Health Monitoring System; Android stored and then forwarded. application; Cardiac Patients; GPS; Arduino Uno; This paper focuses on how the android application is used to send the patient’s parameters to the server. I. INTRODUCTION Also helps the patient in case of emergency by Day by day stress level of people is increasing due generating an alert when the threshold values are to competitive lifestyle and increasing pollution crossed. levels. These days maintaining a healthy life is tough. It is vital to keep track on body by regular check-up. II. LITERATURE REVIEW The system is proposed based on the review of some previous work in the wireless sensor network area and the use of mobile phones in health
