Abstract

Today, healthcare monitoring devices are deployed in health management services to ensure patient safety and to reduce the burden of caregivers and health workers. This study mainly focuses on automatic healthcare systems using IoT that support nursing needs in the public health sector. Nurses work extended hours without proper rest and are more prone to diseases due to contact with patients. So, we can reduce the burden of nurses using these devices. The main objective of this study is to know more about alerting nurses when the IV drip underflows, detecting oxygen saturation level with a pulse oximeter, ECG system for continuous cardiovascular health monitoring, etc. The contribution of this paper lies in the study of different health monitoring systems that helps the nurses to do their work with ease.
