A wearable health monitoring system

Rational (problem & solution)

Health monitoring systems that are used in medical facilities are required to monitor a
patient’s biological and vital parameters. These systems allow constant monitoring. The
case is, sensors on this system are needed to be placed on monitors that limit a patient
to his or her bed. Thus, it cannot be used for monitoring the vitals of a person during
daily activities. Also, continuous hospital visit causes overcrowding on different medical
structures that results on a long time to wait especially that hospital queues is not just a
single queue there is a number of smaller queues involved such as front-desk, blood
test and a lot more. Queues make up for the larger part of a hospital visit.

While there is already a lot of wireless health monitoring system created and present
these days to offer a convenient health tracking services, we designed a more
developed and functional wearable health-tracking device that has some added features
that help to easily and better monitor a person’s health status in his or her daily life
whether it’s indoor or an outdoor routine. One of the advantage in using this device is
that self-health tracking at a medical level increases the independence of people and at
the same time, with the use of flexible and smart technologies that are convenient and
comfortable to the human body, it is minimally invasive for health status monitoring that
can help in improving the quality life of patients. This can also be very useful especially
in alarming situations or sudden changes on the vitals to quickly identify patients at risk
of deterioration and appropriate or necessary actions can be taken immediately.
