Health Monitoring System Using Zigbee Based wearable Devices

Care of critically ill patient, requires spontaneous & accurate decisions so that life protecting &  life  saving therapy can be properly applied. 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 .This paper is based on monitoring of patients. We have designed and developed a reliable, energy efficient patient monitoring system. It is able to send parameters of patient in real time. It enables the doctors to monitor patient  health parameters  in real time. Here the parameters of patient are measured continuously  and wirelessly transmitted using Zigbee. The  project provides a solution for enhancing the reliability and flexibility by improving the performance and patient monitoring system. In the current proposed system the patient health is continuously  monitored and the acquired data is analyzed at a centralized system. If a particular patient health parameter falls below the threshold value, an automated SMS is sent to the prefigured  mobile number using a standard GSM module interfaced to the System. Here, we are using Zigbee for wireless transmission. The Doctor can get are cord of a particular    information by just accessing the database of the patient on his PC which is continuously updated through Zigbee receiver module.
