Diseño de un sistema inalámbrico para monitoreo de pacientes ambulatorios, utilizando sensores de presión arterial y ritmo cardíaco e implementación de un prototipo de prueba

Abstract

This project develops a system that allows continuous monitoring the blood pressure and heart rate outpatient through a prototype that performs measurements automatically. The need for continuous monitoring to patients delicate health is a starting point of this project. A solution is given specially through the use of wireless communications, due to the great development of new technology in medicine and health areas. The prototype uses modules that allow acquiring data of blood pressure and heart rate sensor. These data are sent using wireless technology to a web server for monitoring. The web server receives the information, stores and allows visualization in an interactive way. Additionally, the web application focuses on optimizing healthcare resources in hospitals, through a web management system that manages patient information safe and personalized way. This quality of service is improved by a zero papers scheme, that is to say, an electronic register of medical records and its storing in a database for a later view.
