  2. LITERATURE REVIEW

    A literature survey shows the various analysis and research made in the field of interest and results already published, taking into account the various parameters of the project and the extend of the project. It includes researches made by the various analysts -their methodology and the conclusion they have arrived at. As the amount of elderly people and chronic diseases patients grow rapidly, drawbacks of traditional healthcare service are increasingly prominent. The Internet of

    Things (IoT) is intercommunication of embedded devices using networking technologies [4]. Elderly people need to make regular visit to the doctor for their health signs test results. Observing on regular basis of essential signs is compulsory as they are main signs of well-being of ones individual health. These vital signs include, Pulse rate and Body temperature. The goal is to develop a low power, more reliable, non-intrusive, are the essential signs monitor which gather information on the body and send the parameters through wireless technology. The introduced Human- Wellbeing checking/watching system includes patients, Human-Wellbeing observing units, cloud for information maintenance and secure. With the assistance of some equipment units, different sensors and gadgets with web association. The system functionality is divided into major three modules; they are: 1)Sensing module 2)The Main module and 3)Interaction module7.

    The Pulse Sensor and Temperature Sensor of sensing module should extract the accurate readings and should be able to send the data to the Arduino. The Wi-Fi module which is also a part of the sensing module must send the values to the server without any delay and without any data loss. The Server must store all the data sent by the Wi-Fi module and display the same on the Web Server. Developed a system that measures and detect Human-Heartbeat and body temperature of the patient, sends the data to user or server end by using microcontroller with reasonable cost and great effect. Use two different sensors and these are mainly under the control of microcontroller. For Human-Heartbeat measurement use fingertip, its in bpm (beats per minute). These calculated rates will have stored in server by transferring through Wi-Fi module via internet. liquid crystal display (LCD) has been used to display the calculated human-heart beat rate. To measure the human body temperature, use LM35 sensor, the measured data is given to transmitter module, it interns transfer these ata to server through wireless system due to this notice avoided use of wires. Finally, the stored data in server will be displayed for further analysis by physician or specialist to provide better aid [1][5].

    Heart attacks stand as a leading cause of deaths since years. Most of the times, patients are late to reach the emergency room during heart attacks since detection takes time.

    Fig. 1 Represents the results of a survey conducted by the Times of India and its quite clear that Heart attack or heart failure is the reason behind 16% human deaths from 2005 to

    2015. Thereby there is a need for a robust system to detect heart attacks so that necessary action could be taken.

  3. PROPOSED SYSTEM

    In nowadays we have an expanded number of heart infections including danger of heart attack. Our proposed framework utilizes sensors that permit recognizing pulse of the individual utilizing heart beat detecting regardless of whether the individual is at home. The sensor is then interface to a microcontroller that permits checking heart rate reading and transmitting them over web. The client may set the high just as low dimensions of heart beat limit. Subsequent to setting these limits, the framework begin checking and when quiet heart beat goes over a specific constrains, the framework sends a alert to the controller which the specialist just as the concerned clients. Likewise the framework alert for the lower heart beats. At whatever point the client signs on for observing, the framework likewise show the heart beat rays of the patient. Therefore concerned ones may screen pulse too get a caution of heart rate to the patient promptly from anyplace and the person can be saved on time.

  4. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS

    The results are to illustrate that all the modules are operating correctly without any data loss and each sub- module in all modules are performing their function. The ECG Sensor and Temperature Sensor of sensing module should extract the accurate readings and should be able to send the data to the Arduino. The Wi-Fi module which is also a part of the sensing module must send the values to the server without any delay and without any data loss. The sensors which are connected to the patient will continuously sense the temperature and heart rate. It is connected to the node MCU8266 in which a WiFi module is inbuilt. It will receive the data from the sensors and any fluctuations in the received data will be sent through mail for the specified person. The receiver will get the alert message. The continuous ECG pattern and temperature of the patient is live displayed in the application.

  5. CONCLUSION

Nowadays we have an increased risk of heart attacks. This system which helps to detect heart rate of person using heart beat sensing even if person is at home. This system which helps to measure body temperature, heartbeat of person. The heart beat sensor which is interfaced with microcontroller senses the heartbeat of person and transmits them over internet using Wi-Fi module. System allows setting limits of beat. After setting these limits person can start monitoring the heart beat and whenever the persons heart beat goes above certain set point they can get an alert on high heart beat and also about chances of heart attack. Also the system alerts for lower heartbeat. A pulse sensor which considered as an infrared sensor that has a response to variations in light intensity instead was used. The key objective of developing this project with the help of Android Open Source platform is to immediately alert Medical Emergency and the patients emergency contacts about the health condition of patient. We are developing prototype of this application using the continuous monitoring of parameters to detect and predict the heart attack and generate an alarm. The message will be sent to the doctor when body temperature and heart rate exceeds or goes below specified threshold level. This objective is met with measuring the heart rate and body temperature. It is helpful where continuous monitoring is required under critical condition. In addition it is very usable device due to its portability which means the patients can carry it with him therefore no need to stay at hospitals because the Heart Rate Monitor is applicable almost everywhere. Along with the Heart Rate Monitor, we developed an Android Application that allows both doctors and patients to interact with each other.
