Monitoring the physical condition of patients is a major errand for specialists. The development of wireless remote elderly patient monitoring system has been intensive in the past. RPM (remote patient monitoring) is reliant on the person's inspiration to deal with their wellbeing. The flow of patient data requires a group of medicinal services suppliers to deal with the information. RPM sending is reliant on a wireless telecommunication infrastructure, which may not be accessible/practical in provincial territories. Patients' data are shared as service on cloud in hospitals. Therefore, in the current research, a new approach of cloud-based wireless remote patient monitoring system during emergency is proposed as a model to monitor the critical health data. The vital parameters are measured and transmitted. In this chapter, the authors present an extensive review of the significant technologies associated with wireless patient monitoring using wireless sensor networks and cloud.

Remote Patient Monitoring system is an approach of a health care system that enables the patient-user of performing a remote periodical check-up. Unfortunately, these types of systems usually don't provide the advantages of securely sharing the patient health information among different health providers. Many types of research aimed to solve this issue by applying the blockchain technique to the existing patient health information records at hospitals. However; none was found regarding the remote patient monitoring system's generated data. Therefore, this proposal aims to integrate the advantages of blockchain and the Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) system by building a secure blockchain based RPM system.
