Abstract

Remote patient monitoring (RPM) refers to a wide variety of technologies designed to manage and monitor a range of health conditions. It gives chance to doctor’s to monitor patient’s behavior even when they are not within conventional medical attention and take necessary actions accordingly. Such system requires a seamless integration of hardware and software with information stored in Internet such that everyone including the doctor and the patient party can access and analyze data according to their need. An alarm service is generally integrated to make people aware of any unwanted situation. The current work proposes a monitoring ambience for people who meet with an accident or for some situation, and after surgery, some positions of patients are strictly prohibited as it might cause some serious damage to their health.
