Android based Cloud Platform for Health Monitoring of COVID19 Affected Person

ABSTRACT

Healthcare is a human right that must be accessible to all disregarding the social or economic conditions of any human being. The burden on healthcare system has increased immensely in the last few months. The COVID19 pandemic has brought to the fore gaps in the healthcare system world over. The doctors and front-line workers are directly getting exposed to the virus and patients that might need other healthcare services are vulnerable to the exposure. These problems would be catered by the proposed device as it would be operated by the patients and the real time data can be collected by the doctors to assess the vital body parameters through cloud without being physically present in the same environment. The parameters that can be monitored are body temperature, pulse rate, and oxygen saturation level. Hence, the proposed device includes sensors for measuring the body temperature (i.e. LM35) and pulse and oxygen level (i.e. MAX30100). The experimental setup has been built using Android based Blynk Cloud Platform where data is collected from remote places and stored the cloud. It is further available for assessment by the healthcare professionals. © 2021 IEEE.
