Over the past years, numerous Internet of Things (IoT)-based healthcare systems have been developed to monitor patient health conditions, but these traditional systems do not adapt to constraints imposed by revolutionized IoT technology. IoT-based healthcare systems are considered mission-critical applications whose missing deadlines cause critical situations. For example, in patients with chronic diseases or other fatal diseases, a missed task could lead to fatalities. This study presents a smart patient health monitoring system (PHMS) based on an optimized scheduling mechanism using IoT-tasks orchestration architecture to monitor vital signs data of remote patients. The proposed smart PHMS consists of two core modules: a healthcare task scheduling based on optimization and optimization of healthcare services using a real-time IoT-based task orchestration architecture. First, an optimized time-constraint-aware scheduling mechanism using a real-time IoT-based task orchestration architecture is developed to generate autonomous healthcare tasks and effectively handle the deployment of emergent healthcare tasks. Second, an optimization module is developed to optimize the services of the e-Health industry based on objective functions. Furthermore, our study uses Libelium e-Health toolkit to monitors the physiological data of remote patients continuously. The experimental results reveal that an optimized scheduling mechanism reduces the tasks starvation by 14% and tasks failure by 17% compared to a conventional fair emergency first (FEF) scheduling mechanism. The performance analysis results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed system, and it suggests that the proposed solution can be an effective and sustainable solution towards monitoring patient’s vital signs data in the IoT-based e-Health domain.

The health monitoring system has become indispensable in the treatment of patients, especially for those who have chronic illnesses and need real-time observation from doctors and specialists. This article presents a low-cost wireless solution for monitoring, in real time, vital signs such as cardiac beats, breathing and blood pressure, collecting and sending data to a remote computer. During development, a wireless sensor box was created, using Arduino Nano and bluetooh sensors, where this box is attached to the patient's body, respecting the patient's flexibility and mobility during physical exercises. During the monitoring, the captured data is transmitted via the bluetooh network. The box uses a battery for its food. After the evaluation, the solution obtained a performance and correctness of the data close to 100%, being considered fit for use. Several experiments were carried out to analyze, quantify and qualify the solution, being discussed and presented in this paper.

This paper presents the design details of its implementation of an IoT-based Real Time Health Monitoring System for the monitoring of a patient and provides. The proposed Design permits the monitoring of health related dangers and deals with economy in health care expenditure through effective interpretation and distribution of patient data. This paper works on the concept of reducing human presence in monitoring a patient’s problems and sending vital details to the Doctors and Caretakers on a real time basis. This proposal helps saving in and alerts the Doctors/Caretakers in an emergency situation to ensure critical moments are not wasted. The outcome of the proposed system is to provide exact collected medical services to patients through records and information through sensors which monitor the patient’s details relating to Pulse, temperature, Body Tilt Angle and Glucose Level. This information is sent to the patient’s Doctor/Caretaker using a cloud based App on a real time basis.

In today's world, health is one of the vital issues to solve through wireless communication technology. It should be efficient in terms of cost and reliable communication with suitable protocols. To monitor the health conditions of a patient, a mobile care system can be designed with the help of wireless sensor network using IoT. This can be done by integrating different sensors to sense physiological data from a human body and then transmit the data to a remote healthcare cloud through a smartphone as an interface. All the vital signs monitored are portable and will have the ability of short-range wireless communication. Then the data can be uploaded to the central server to keep track of the patient's health condition. In emergency, a notification will be sent to the nearest hospital by sending a warning message through mobile application.

Abstract: The increased use of smart phones and smart devices in the health zone has brought on extraordinary effect on the world’s critical care. The Internet of things is progressively permitting to coordinate sensors fit for associating with the Internet and give data on the health condition of patients. These technologies create an amazing change in medicinal services during pandemics. Likewise, many users are beneficiaries of the M-Health (Mobile Health) applications and E-Health (social insurance upheld by ICT) to enhance, help and assist continuously to specialists who help. The main aim of this ‘IOT Health Monitoring System’ is to build up a system fit for observing vital body signs such as body temperature, heart rate, pulse oximetry etc. The System is additionally equipped measuring Room Temperature and Humidity and Atmosphere CO level. To accomplish this, the system involves many sensors to display vital signs that can be interfaced to the doctor’s smart phone as well as caretakers’ smartphone. This prototype will upload the readings from the sensor to a server remotely and the information gathered will be accessible for analysis progressively. It has the capacity of reading and transmitting vital parameters measured to the cloud server and then to any Smartphone configured with Blynk App. These readings can be utilized to recognize the health state of the patient and necessary actions can be taken if the vital parameters are not in prescribed limits for a longer period. Keywords: IOT Health Monitoring System, Vital parameters, Blynk App
