VITAL TESTS AT HOME


VITAL TESTS AT HOME
The basic problem people in the world face is in health care where many people often have to stay in a hospital for hours together even though the intended task is to get a patient monitored.
So the idea is creating a wearable device which can monitor the vitals of a patient and send hourly updates.
The Vital signs monitored
·                                 ECG
·                                 EEG
·                                 EMG
·                                 respiration rate
·                                 Perspiration
these data will be monitored using normal ecg electrode (respiration effort uses piezo material)
all these data will be sent to a doctor through GSM transmission and the device sends reports every hour to doctor's phone if the doctor finds any problem he calls the patient
Advantage
·                                 It leads to faster diagnostics (as doctor need not spend too much time per patient)
·                                 The biggest problem in hospital i.e- not enough rooms for patient (this is solved as patient occupy space only to take scans but this helps them to stay at home and take the medical attention and there will be more rooms vacant for the people with medical problem to stay).
