IoT Based Elderly Healthcare Monitoring System

Abstract: Now a days continuous patient health monitoring is becoming a key concern for the doctors since it can help them save patient’s life. So, the main objective is to design a patient monitoring system which can monitor various physiological data of patient who is remotely placed and make available this real time data to the doctor. The data is made available over the internet so that doctor can access this data from anywhere in the world. Remote patient monitoring reduces the need of doctor`s visit to the patient. In this entire system IOT plays a major role in providing many applications and services and Raspberry Pi used here is not just a sensor node but also a processor. It is a smart device which can sense, gather and publish this data over the internet. Paper proposes a generic health monitoring system with Heart Disease Prediction system (HDPS) using Neural network. The HDPS system predicts the likelihood of patient getting a heart disease. For prediction, the system uses sex, blood pressure, age, height, weight like medical parameters. as a step forward to the progress made in this department till now.
