Health Monitoring and Alert System using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP)

Abstract

The majority of the senior residents are regularly disregarded and are powerless in the midst of health-related crises. The current frameworks can help in keeping track of the condition yet do not have an automated alerting framework that can alert the concerned clinical specialists over long distances. Likewise, they are wired, which can meddle with the patient’s movements. Wearable and wireless gadgets are present in the market, yet again their major drawbacks are being significantly expensive and an absence of automated alerting framework. The gadgets that have both wellbeings checking and alerting frameworks are simply exorbitant for ordinary people. To deal with this issue, we have thought of a prospective health alert system. The framework comprises a heartbeat sensor that will continuously monitor the pulse of the user. If the pulse rate deviates from the normal range, it will be detected by the Node MCU. In order to avoid a false alarm for healthcare services, the Node MCU will send an alert to the user using a buzzer in order to get confirmation from the user. The user will respond using the user input buttons, and the system will act accordingly. The location will be fetched from the GPS sensor, and healthcare services and relatives would be alerted about the user’s condition and his location using VoIP calls.
