Abstract – Everyday many lives are affected by heart
field of Medicine is Remote Patient Monitoring. Remote monitoring, also known as self-monitoring/testing, enables medical professionals to monitor a patient remotely using various technological devices. This method is primarily used for managing chronic diseases or specific conditions, such as heart disease, to check blood pressure, or asthma. These services can provide comparable health outcomes to traditional in-person patient encounters, supply greater satisfaction to patients, and may be cost-effective. In remote monitoring, sensors are used to capture and transmit biometric data. For example, a tele-EEG device monitors the electrical activity of a patient’s brain and then transmits that data to a specialist. This could be done in either real time or the data could be stored and then forwarded. This paper focuses on how the android application is used to send the patient’s parameters to the server. Also helps the patient in case of emergency by generating an alert when the threshold values are crossed.
attacks and other diseases more importantly because the patients did not get timely and proper helps. In the future what if due to lack of urgent service we are not able to save the patient. The answer to such a problem is that the patient needs to be monitored constantly. Due to which we would be able attend the patient immediately. Hence, we introduce a system consisting of a wearable device that will monitor the patient health. The wearable device will consist of different sensors such as temperature sensors and pulse sensor BP and humidity. The device will send its data to the server through the android application of the patient. This data will be available to the doctor on his desktop and individual also. We have made a prototype of an automated electronic system comprising a Wi-Fi module and IC ATMEGHA 328 microcontroller which is capable of measuring the Body Temperature and Heart Beat of a moving Patient no matter where the patient is and in case of emergency sends wireless plea for the rescue/emergency help. The system that we have proposed give an advantage when compared to the wired system in the view that the doctor can get real time information about the parameters as well as location of the patient so that instant medication can be provided. In case of emergency the patient can be tracked using his latitudes and longitudes.
2. EXISTING SYSTEM: Currently the system used for patient monitoring is the fixed monitoring system which can be used only when the patient is on bed. The available systems are huge in size and only available in the hospitals in ICU.

1. INTRODUCTION Day by day stress level of people is increasing due to competitive lifestyle and increasing pollution levels. These days maintaining a healthy life is thought. It is vital to keep track on body by regular check-up. Patient monitoring refers to the continuous observation of repeating events of physiologic function to guide therapy or to monitor the effectiveness of interventions and is used primarily in the intensive care unit and operating room. At least in India there is no system which continuously monitors the patient when patient is on move. Wireless sensors are standard measurement tools equipped with transmitters to convert signals from process control instruments into a radio transmission. The radio signal is interpreted by a receiver which then converts the wireless signal to a specific, desired output, such as an analog current or data analysis via computer software. Wireless Sensors are also used in diagnosis. One of the applications of Wireless Sensors in the
