MONITORING SYSTEM
WHY MONITORING?
“ India has just one doctor for every 1,700 people” ~ Survey, 2014
Statistics reveal that every minute a human is losing his/her life across the
Globe.
More close in India, everyday many lives are affected by heart attacks and
more importantly because the patients did not get timely and proper help.
Majority of ICUs in India are being run as open or semi closed units, with
unaccountable custodians.
OBJECTIVES AND APPROACH
SENSOR 1
ZIGBEE
DOCTOR’S PC ZIGBEE
GSM MODULE
DOCTOR’S MOBILE
IMPLEMENTATION
1. ARM PROCESSOR
ARM is a general purpose 32-bit microprocessor.
The parameters to be monitored are sensed using respective sensor and
data is feed to ARM.
This unit is the heart of the complete system.
It will monitor & control all the peripheral devices or components
connected in the system
2. HEART SENSOR
Heart beat sensor is designed to give digital output of heart beat when a
finger is placed inside it.
This digital output can be connected to ARM directly to measure the Beats
per Minute (BPM) rate.
ICLM358 is used for this sensor. Its dual low power operational amplifier
consists of a super bright red LED and light detector. One will act as
amplifiers and another will be used as comparator.
When heart pumps a pulse of blood through blood vessels, finger becomes
slightly more opaque so less light reach at the detector.
With each heart pulse, the detector signal varies which is converted to
electrical pulse.
It works on the principle of light modulation by blood flow through finger in
each pulse.
3. TEMPERATURE SENSOR- LM35
Low latency.
ADVANTAGES
From the above designed project we can conclude that we are able
to transmit the data which is sensed from remote patient to the
doctor’s PC by using wireless transmission technology, ZigBee.
This can be of great use in the field of medicine and helps the
doctors to keep a keen eye on the patients health.
