The healthcare monitoring system is very useful for the old age people, cardiac vascular endues and many others for observing vital parameters like blood pressure, heart rate, pulse rate, body temperature etc. The proposed work utilizes 8bit X-Mega2560 microcontroller with an application created for overseers and hospital to constantly watch the patient’s parameters from their home, hospitals etc. The proposed system senses the vital parameters of the patients and sends an alert message to respective caretakers, through Wi-Fi which utilizes COAP conventions. These models are integrated to a simple arduino uno microcontroller to exhibit different functionalities. The system will reduce the cost, empowering the patients who are not able to consult the doctors for diagnosis and also minimize the patient’s transportations. This system will bridge the gap between patient and doctor in real time.

II. Related Work
Monitoring of the health condition of a patient under critical illness and conveying the monitored information to the care takers and concerned doctors is a major concern of this work. This section reviews the various technologies available for wireless communication, their merits and demerits. This section also reviews the different sensors to measure the vital sign parameters like blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature.
In [1], it implements the tele-monitoring system for continuous monitoring of chronic conditions such as CHF (chronic heart- failure) and alert physicians for any Signs and symptoms occurrence. This is not a battery powered system which is the main drawback.
In [2], a healthcare monitoring system is implemented through GSM based networks. On violation of vital parameters, automatically send the message to caretakers or doctor.
Paper [3] details design and implementations based on GSM enabled embedded system for monitoring the biomedical parameters like blood pressure and body temperature. The system uses GSM for communicating the abnormalities in the simulated bio-medical parameters.
Paper [4] explains about how to monitor the patient’s health condition by introducing the WBAN system and cloud based computing.
Paper [5] describes to improve the efficiency of medical gadget. Based on IOT technology monitoring the patient’s sign parameters which uses the different protocol and RFID to identify physiological conditions, UHRFID is used and must be implement to every patient to make this system local access only.
In [6], proposes a novel algorithm for BEC node and monitors the patient’s health via WBAN server.
Authors in [7], planned a mobile health application for fare observance and assessment, which is able to keep a track of daily personal health record of a user for blubber interference. The appliance can send alerts and messages regarding the user’s diet program taking into consideration his physical activity.
In [8], the embedded microcontroller is connected to set of medical sensors and communication modules which check the patient health condition status. If the results are abnormal, embedded unit uses the patient’s phone to transmit the patient’s status to medical center. In this situation doctor will send medical advice to patient to save his\her life.
Paper [9] focuses on the measurement and monitoring various parameters of patient’s body like heart rate, temperature, and blood pressure using web server and android application. Using an android app doctor can monitor the patient’s condition, and patient’s data will be stored on the web server. And doctor can access the patient’s information whenever needed.
Paper [10] presents an IOT remote healthcare monitoring system that provides the patient’s vital sign parameters (heart rate, ECG, blood pressure, oxygen saturation in blood level, etc.) through web browser. Implementation is based on CoAP protocol on Mozilla Firefox web browser and the manipulation of resources by CoAP methods.
Paper [11] gives the proper and efficient medical services to patients by connecting and collecting the required data information through health status monitors which would include patient’s blood pressure, ECG and heart rate and sends an alert message to concerned doctor with his current status and full medical information.
In [12], using a specific sensor, the data will be captured and compared with a configurable threshold via microcontroller which is defined by a specialized doctor. In case of emergency a short message service (SMS) will be sent to the Doctor’s mobile number along with the measured values through GSM module. Furthermore, the GPS provides the position information of the monitored person who is under surveillance all the time. This paper also demonstrates the feasibility of realizing a complete end to end smart health system responding to the real health system.
Paper [13] demonstrates the feasibility of using flexible, and user-friendly equipment to inform others when user needs an emergency response. And also presents a combination of mobile communication with data transmission through Wi-Fi.
In [14], improving ambulance transportation availability services when requests are made without having to call or wait for long time. This paper analyzed, designed and implemented a prototype to demonstration the operation of the system to show its effectiveness with respect to the current system.
Paper [15], presented the health monitoring using smart phone accessories. The major benefit to using this system is that the users do not have to carry an extra device while maintaining their health and safety. Additionally, to improved the accuracy of the ECG measurement.
Following are the drawbacks of the existing systems which the authors have learned through literature survey.
-
• Safety and security measures have not considered.
-
• Many of the authors use the GSM and GPS network to monitoring the patient’s health.

III. Motivation
When a patient is in critical illness, timely monitoring of vital sign parameters and providing with the required treatment is very important. In many cases the patient may be alone, caretakers and concerned doctors are faraway for him. Under this condition the patient may reach a critical state or even die. In order to help such kind of people to draw the attention of concerned and provide with them the necessary treatment, the author’s thought of developing a fully automated wearable and smart healthcare monitoring system.
-
