Smart Real-Time Healthcare Monitoring and Tracking System using GSM/GPS Technologies

Abstract

Recently, remote monitoring systems have evolved to respond for particular needs in healthcare sector, which is an essential pillar in the modern concept of smart city, we propose a smart system to monitor patient current health conditions, as a smart healthcare system based on the widely spread available technologies; namely, GSM and GPS. Statistics shows that hypertensive heart disease and blood pressure are risk factors for high death rate to decrease it a preventive measures should be applied providing a real-time health monitoring system, to save patients life at acceptable time. The objectives of this paper is to provide an effective system model, that will track, trace, and monitor patient vital readings in order to provide efficient medical services in time. By using sensors, the data will be captured and compared with a predefined threshold. The study focuses on heartbeat rate, and body temperature, thus in case of emergency an SMS will be sent to the Doctors mobile containing measured values and position. Moreover, the paper demonstrates the possibility of building a complete end-to-end smart healthcare monitoring system by using wide range of available sensors for more vital human health parameters to connect patient with doctors in cases of emergency.

Developing Smart System for Managing Heart Patients' Crises

“…The nearest hospital received a distress notification from the proposed device for patient, it contains the patient's name, heart rate and time of heart attack as shown in figure (16). To confirm the response to the distress request, a notification page is entered that contains the patient's personal , vital information, as well as his current location and navigation through directions on Google maps, medical file is also created for the patient in this hospital received the distress request as shown in figure (17,18). If the nearest hospital is not ready to receive the patient, send notification is automatically to the next hospital in terms of the closest distance as shown in figure (19).…”

“…The data will be acquired using the sensors and compared to a specified limit. The study concentrates on heart rate, body temperature, and therefore in the event of an emergency, an SMS will be sent to the doctors mobile phone containing measured values and position [17].…”

An Advanced First Aid System Based on an Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and a Wireless Body Area Sensor Network for Elderly Persons in Outdoor Environments

“…The life span of electronic components, which includes the bio-sensors, microcontroller, GPS and GSM, refers to the time of the first transmission until those components lost their working capability in the FDD, specially GPS and GSM [45,46,47]. In this study our proposed device turns off the GPS and GSM modules until it detects the patient’s fall, thus reducing FDD current consumption.…”

“…Some previous work has adopted GSM for the wireless data technology [45,46,47] in WBSN applications because of the long transmission distances and the need to be used in both indoor and outdoor environments. This work adopted a small GSM module based on SIM800L.…”

IOT Based Smart Health Care

“…Highlights of this sensor are as per the following: Calibrated specifically in Degree Celsius (Centigrade), Linear at 10.0 mV/°C scale factor, it is capable of measuring temperature at 0.5°C precision at 25°C, Its range of measuring is -55°C to a 150°C, Its advantage is that this sensor is suitable for remote control applications, and is available at low cost because of waferlevel trimming, It can work with a voltage from 4 to 30 volts, it consumes less than 60 mA current deplete, it do not get selfwarming, 0.08°C impart air, Its non-linearity is just 0.25°C regular, Low impedance yield, 0.1ωfor 1 mA stack.
