Real Time Patient Tele-monitoring System Using Labview: Tele-Monitoring On Wheels

Patient tele-monitoring is remotely monitoring the vital parameters of patient and providing them to the doctor at remote location than the patient thus ensuring mobility of both patient and the doctor. In the present paper the physiological parameters such as Electrocardiogram, Heart rate, SPO2, Phonocardiogram and Temperature are obtained processed and displayed in a graphical user interface, then provided dynamically to a web page in real time to be viewed by an authorized doctor, if anyone of the vital parameter go out of normal range than an alert file is generated by the system.Finally alerts will be given in twoways, firstly on the doctor’s mobile about the vital signs of the patient using Android application and secondlyalert given by an email notification. All the three objectives have been implemented using LabVIEW.
