IoT-Based Real-Time Monitoring System for Epidemic Diseases Patients: Design and Evaluation

Updated

This paper introduces a real-time monitoring system for monitoring pneumonia patients that will allow doctors to monitor the health of their patients remotely through smartphones or internetconnected devices. To verify the proper functioning of this system, a real-time monitoring device was developed. A secure mechanism is designed to establish a wireless connection to the monitoring unit.

The research covered the design and implementation of a real-time healthcare monitoring system based on IoT for epidemic disease patients. The device can also be used as a tool for real-time monitoring and assisting in the healthcare of the elderly at home by taking advantage of the web capabilities and wireless sensors provided by this system to communicate directly with the specialist remotely. The experimental results of the several tests indicate the importance of using both wireless sensor networks and internet of things services to achieve high efficiency of the network and enable the doctor or specialist to follow the patient's condition and adjust the parameters of the device according to the immediate health status. The overall efficiency of the device can be improved through the use of advanced wireless modules and intelligent control methodology. The device can be further developed into continuous monitoring of different types of patients by adding a new type of sensor.
