PATIENT MONITORING SYSTEM USING ANDROID TECHNOLOGY

Telemedicine is a rapidly developing application of clinic medicine where medical information is transferred through the phone or internet or other networks for the purpose of consulting and performing remote medical procedures or examinations. Telemedicine can be applied to a greater extend in the field of cardiology where ECG serves as the major tool. This project elaborates the experience; a methodology adopted and highlights various design aspects to be considered for making telemedicine in patient monitoring system effective. In this method, the patient’s vital signs like ECG, heart rate, breathing rate, temperature, SpO2 are captured and the values are entered into the database. It is then uploaded into the web based server and sent to the doctor’s phone using ANDROID technology. It also enables the doctors to instantly send back their feedback to the nurse station.
