An IoT System for Remote Health Monitoring in Elderly Adults through a Wearable Device and Mobile Application

Abstract: With the increase in global life expectancy and the advance of technology, the creation of age-friendly environments is a priority in the design of new products for elderly people healthcare. This paper presents a proposal for a real-time health monitoring system of older adults living in geriatric residences. This system was developed to help caregivers to have a better control in monitoring the health of their patients and have closer communication with their patients’ family members.

“…These findings are a great incentive for future developments. With respect to systems that monitor older adults, an IoT system for heart rate, body temperature, and blood oxygenation was presented in [30]. Although glucose was not considered in the monitoring, the importance of the IoT system and the mobile application were emphasized.…”
