The purpose of this research was to design and realize a real-time tele-monitoring system with multiphysiological parameters using the Internet. Both the Client/Server (C/S) mode and Peer-to-Peer (P2P) mode were used in the system's network communication. The C/S mode is used to upload, retrieve, and download physiological data. The P2P mode provides realtime tele-monitoring and video chatting between doctors and patients. Experiment results show that P2P technology could efficiently improve the transmission speed of the physiological parameters. This study demonstrates an effective method of remote monitoring of physiological parameters in real time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
