Abstract

The medical treatment and diagnosis of patient's in hospitals is very diffcult due to very limited staff especially in government hospitals where the doctor to patient ratio is very low. This project looks at a novel method of monitoring a patient's health without the doctor physically being present there. This monitoring system assists the doctor in carrying out medical tests and also provides patient-doctor interaction, when the doctor cannot be physically present near the patient. The proposed system uses a variety of sensors to monitor human body parameters like Temperature, Pulse and ECG sensors. These sensors are integrated together and their output is made available to the doctor in a virtual form. The sensors are integrated to LabVIEW through NI myRIO to provide a GUI based environment and monitoring parameters are displayed on the LabVIEW front panel. The doctor can access the front panel in his mobile phone using the Wi-Fi connection of myRIO.
