 INTRODUCTION
 Virtual telemedicine involves the use of technology to provide healthcare services remotely,
particularly for monitoring the health status of patients.

 The emergence of telemedicine has revolutionized the delivery of healthcare services, particularly in
remote or underserved areas where access to traditional healthcare facilities is limited.

 Remote health monitoring, enabled by wearable sensors and advanced communication technologies,
allows for continuous monitoring of patients' health status and timely interventions when necessary .
TECHNOLOGY USED
 A wearable device such a bracelet or watch is connected to
sensors via an ESP32 microcontroller.
 The sensors used is temperature, SpO2 and Heart beat sensor
which outputs four values like body temperature of patient,
oxygen level of patient, pulse rate and blood pressure of patient.
 The prediction of a patient's state is made using these reading
Cloud computing design
from sensors.
 These values are uploaded to cloud.
 Later these values are fetched to predict patient’s condition in
real time.
 Machine learning algorithms are used to train the model.
 Upon real-time prediction, four outputs are predicted normal
range, fever, viral fever, and chest pain.

ALGORITHM USED

 Algorithms like Logistic Regression,

Random Forest and Extreme Gradient
Boosting are being compared to obtain
maximum accuracy.
 The Random Forest model is providing
good accuracy for the prediction of a
patient’s condition compared to other
algorithms.

1.Support vector machine (SVM):
 An algorithm for segmentation and inversion is called the Support Vector Machine
(SVM). In an Ndimensional space, it is used to find a hyperplane. The hyperplane's size
is employed to categorize diseases based on threshold values, which forecasts the right
diagnosis.

2.Random forest (RF):

 Regression and classification are both performed using a random forest method. RF
algorithm determines the result by taking the average or mean of the output from several
trees.

3.Decision tree (DT):

 By breaking up the source set into smaller sets based on value judgement, decision tree
technique used in the current work begins with a single node attribute that accepts a
range of input values, moves through the tree nodes based on the values, and examines a
number of additional attributes before making a prediction.

6
4. Naive bayes (NB):
 By converting the dataset characteristics into frequency tables, the Naive Bayes
classifier in this study creates likelihood tables by determining the probabilities of the
provided features, which are then used to construct posterior probabilities using the
Bayes theorem.

5.K-means clustering:
 K-Means Clustering is a technique for unrestricted learning that divides unlabeled
databases into distinct collections. The number of specified clusters that should be
generated in this process is determined by the constant K. There are 2 clusters at K = 2,
3 at K, and so on,it generates intermediate nearest values that aid in disease diagnosis.

IMPLEMENTATION
 Pre-processed dataset is loaded into the
program.
 Dataset has been divided into testing and
training samples
 Algorithms like LR, RF and XGBoost are
applied to the data samples.
 Real-time data from sensors are recorded like
temperature, blood pressure, spo2, heart beat.
 Sensor values are being uploaded to the
ThingSpeak cloud.
 Latest data entry from cloud is fetched.
 Using the best accuracy algorithm, diagnosis
prediction is being made.
 Further drug suggestion is made according to
the patient’s condition.
 Alert message is sent to doctor/nurse/guardian
if there is any critical condition observed.

 CONCLUSION
The proposed system is expected to be more accurate, more efficient, more reliable, cost effective and it saves
time when compared to other systems. This is done by collecting data from sensors. The study reduces the need
for people to visit healthcare institutions for evaluation by recommending medications in accordance with
patients' anticipated health conditions. If a critical condition develops, a message of alert is delivered to the
doctors and nurses. The work can be implemented in Urban hospitals, Clinics, Rural hospitals as well as it can
be used to monitor old people’s health condition.
