Title | Wireless Stand-alone Portable Patient Monitoring and Logging System |
Authors | |
Abstract | In this paper, we propose a wireless stand-alone, embedded system design that integrates the monitoring of three biomedical parameters into a single personal medical device. The three parameters are: blood glucose level, heart rate, and pulse oximetry. The goal of this work is to build a compact and cost-effective device capable of monitoring several medical parameters while patients conduct their normal daily activities, and store these parameter readings in an embedded system-based portable device. A communication protocol and patient monitoring software application are developed to store data that can be later downloaded to a physician’s workstation for analysis and diagnosis. |
