Android based health parameter monitoring

One of the increasing public concerns is human health. It is very important to maintain good health. Some things will get upset if one gets sick and for this reason people are ready to spend money. This paper proposes an integrated, portable & convenient solution to monitor vital health parameters like body temperature & heart rate on a regular day to day basis. The device is designed using sensors to measure these parameters non-invasively. These sensors are connected to microcontroller board Arduino Uno which transmits data wirelessly via Bluetooth on user's android enabled smartphone. The results obtained are stored in the designed app, over a period of time. The patient details with the readings of the different parameters is transferred to the cloud. After each measurement, the results are compared with the threshold for each parameter. If the results are not as desired, then a summary with confirmed symptoms is displayed in the app. This summary can be uploaded on the cloud for consulting a remote doctor.
