Abstract:

The country’s healthcare infrastructure may not be enough in the face of an epidemic, especially COVID-19. Patients need to be monitored constantly, 24 hours a day which is very difficult to do either at hospitals or at home. This system tries to ease this problem through automatic monitoring of some basic parameters that governs a patient’s health condition. The parameters that this system monitors are temperature of the body using temperature sensor, heartbeat count and blood oxidation level using oxidation sensor. The readings are then pushed to the database using a Wi-Fi module, the values are then fetched using MQTT protocol on the front-end web application. A web application using ReactJS is developed to give a live analysis of a patient's condition and to check the condition of multiple patients with a graphical representation of their heart rate, oxidation and body temperature levels. The data of each patient can be viewed by the doctor. When the condition of a patient is at an abnormal level, the doctor is immediately alerted through an indication in the web application and at the same time an SMS alert is sent to the patient’s family member. Thus, this project prevents the doctor from coming in direct contact with the patients.
