DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A LOWCOST WIRELESS VITAL SIGNS MONITORING SYSTEM

The healthcare industry is constantly evolving, and technology has revolutionized the way we manage our health. One of the most significant advancements is the development of wireless vital signs monitoring systems. These systems allow for continuous monitoring of patient's vital signs, without the need for wires and cables, making them more comfortable and mobile. This paper presents the design and implementation of a low-cost wireless vital signs monitoring system. The system consists of a wearable sensor module that collects and transmits vital signs data wirelessly to a central monitoring station. The monitoring station is responsible for processing the data and alerting healthcare professionals in case of abnormalities. The sensor module consists of various sensors to measure vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, temperature, and oxygen saturation. The sensors are integrated into a compact and lightweight wearable device that can be comfortably worn by patients. The device communicates with the central monitoring station using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology, which is known for its low power consumption and high data transfer rates.
