Real-Time Health Monitoring and Tracking System

Health monitoring has become an essential system in modern healthcare for tracking real-time vital parameters. This device offers a cost-effective health monitoring solution with a live tracking feature, using an Arduino Uno (microcontroller) integrated with various sensors, including the DHT11 for temperature measurement, which also tracks the environmental humidity level. Additionally, the system incorporates the GY-NEO6MV2 (GPS module) for location tracking, which is particularly useful for tracking patient with medical condition and the AD8232 (ECG sensor) for continuous heart rate monitoring of the patient. The system features an LED-based alert mechanism, which activates to signal abnormal conditions detected by the DHT11 sensor, particularly temperature-related anomalies. This device also has a panic button which helps the individual to notify the caretakers or healthcare providers when they experience any abnormality. Arduino Uno processes all the data collected from these sensors and presents it effectively. The obtained data is collected by the Thing speak app through real-time. The GPS module also helps to pinpoint the patient’s location, making the system ideal for health monitoring applications such as elder care or remote patient management. The system can be monitored remotely, which reduces the frequent visit of the caretaker or healthcare professionals and helps with the update of the patient through real-time. With its portability and affordability, this system stands out as a highly practical and cost-efficient option, enabling easy and continuous patient monitoring from anywhere.
