Smart Real-Time Healthcare Monitoring and Tracking System using GSM/GPS Technologies

Abstract : Health monitoring systems have rapidly evolved recently, and smart systems have been proposed to monitor patient current health conditions, in our proposed and implemented system, we focus on monitoring the patient’s blood pressure, and his body temperature. Based on last decade statistics of medical records, death rates due to hypertensive heart disease, shows that the blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for atherosclerosis and ischemic heart diseases; thus, preventive measures should be taken against high blood pressure which provide the ability to track, trace and save patient’s life at appropriate time is an essential need for mankind. Nowadays, Globalization demands Smart cities, which involves many attributes and services, such as government services, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), energy, health care, water and waste. This paper proposes a system architecture for smart healthcare based on GSM and GPS technologies. The objective of this work is providing an effective application for Real Time Health Monitoring and Tracking. The system will track, trace, monitor patients and facilitate taking care of their health; so efficient medical services could be provided at appropriate time. By Using specific sensors, the data will be captured and compared with a configurable threshold via microcontroller which is defined by a specialized doctor who follows the patient; in any case of emergency a short message service (SMS) will be sent to the Doctor’s mobile number along with the measured values through GSM module. furthermore, the GPS provides the position information of the monitored person who is under surveillance all the time. Moreover, the paper demonstrates the feasibility of realizing a complete endto-end smart health system responding to the real health system design requirements by taking in consideration wider vital human health parameters such as respiration rate, nerves signs ... etc. The system will be able to bridge the gap between patients - in dramatic health change occasions- and health entities who response and take actions in real time fashion.

 EXISTING SYSTEM :

 ? The existed system only calculates and displays the vitals of the patient and does not help in continues monitoring and hence the proposed work helps in that and that too in a very efficient way. ? In the previous existing method PC devices used as data acquisition (DAQ) systems we are able to collect vital information about the elderly patients remotely. ? Existed system which monitors temperature & pulse rate of different patients and immediate action is taken using Bluetooth technology. ? After first being authenticated by the system, the customer will be presented with a prefilled form with all of their existing information.

 DISADVANTAGE :

 ? Health care workers in remote locations can check pregnant women, monitor a baby’s health, examine patients for heart and lung problems, and triage other problems. ? The system will track, trace, monitor patients and facilitate taking care of their health; so efficient medical services could be provided at appropriate time. ? One of the issues during transportation of patient is traffic related problems. ? The Internet of Things (IoT) systems enable the communication of adverse suite of devices and objects, however it is known that security is one of the major problems in these systems.

 PROPOSED SYSTEM :

 • This paper proposes system architecture for smart healthcare based on GSM and GPS technologies. • The proposed system will send the message to the doctor and nurse through GSM which will actually help in monitoring the patient remotely. • The proposed system is portable and the communications are done using GSM, but the sensors are not wireless. • The proposed system is easy to use even for a Layman as the patient only has to place the sensor and does not have to worry about the readings as any unusual readings are reported.

 ADVANTAGE :

 ? The system will track, trace, monitor patients and facilitate taking care of their health; so efficient medical services could be provided at appropriate time. ? It is therefore necessary to have a fast, economical and efficient traffic control. It can display location of ambulance and status of heart bit rate and temperature of patient. ? The ARDIUNO system is used to alter the traffic lights upon its arrival at traffic light junction which would save a lives at critical time. ? The protocol uses implementation of AES-CCM optimized for IoT devices. ? The system works in a Server-Client model and we use dual channel to communicate with the IoT module.
