Project Scope Statement

Project Objectives:In case of emergency and dangerous situations we have to alert the doctor
immediately. For this we are using a Zigbee based network for doctor to patient
communication in the hospital and even to communicate and indicate the status
of the patient through SMS. This way of communication is actually done with
Zigbee network topology and with the GSM network. Each patient will be given
this module and with the help of this module the patient health condition is
monitored and if there is any change in the condition of the health then it
immediately sends that changed data through Zigbee to the local system where
the main module is connected to the computer to maintain the status of the patient.
The heart beat is monitored with the pulse rate of the body. The high intensity
light sensor senses the expansion and contraction of the heart with the help of the
nerves. That beam will transmit the signal to the receiver and the minute change
in the pulse is noticed as the heartbeat. If there is any change in the pulses then it
is noticed as the change in the heart and then the controller will get a disturbed
pulse count which indicates the fault or malfunction of the heart .The controller
is fixed for a no. of pulses initially. If there is any change in the any of the pulse
count then it considers as a malfunction of the heart and then it transmits the pulse
count with the patients ID to the doctor in the hospital and at the same to it sends
a sms to a fixed number in the microcontroller. This is convenient process to
monitor the patients health conditions form any of the distance we present. Since
we are using both the networks like Zigbee and GSM this makes the user to
communicate for internal system and as well as to the longer distances.
The main processes involved in this type of control system are to monitor the
patients health status. Zigbee is a wireless connection network that is used to
connect different devices at a frequency of 2.4GHz. For medical applications also
this Zigbee is widely used. The Zigbee can communicate with the devices of
about 1km. The other network is GSM network. This can be operated from
any distance to any point of control. The communication is done with the help of
local network support. This can get communicated to any part of the world which
the network of the local system is applicable. Here we are using for the hospital
communication for monitoring the patient.

Project Deliverables:-

Technology is being used every where in our daily life to fulfill our requirements.
We are employing different sensors for different applications some times we may
even use same sensors differently for different applications. What ever it may be
the final output is life has increased its speed with the technology boosters. We
can not only increase the speed of life but also increase security with good ideas
to make use of this technology. One of the ideal ways of using technology is to
employ it to sense serious health problems so that efficient medical services can
be provided to the patient in correct time. This idea to provide efficient health
service to patients has given birth to the project heart beat monitoring system with
wireless interfacing to mobile phone using GSM modem. Heart beat monitor and
display system is a portable and a best replacement for the old model stethoscope
which is less efficient. The heart beat rate is calculated manually using
stethoscope where the probability of error is high, because the heart beat rate lies
between 70 to 90 per minute whose occurrence is less than 1 sec. So this device
can be considered as a very good alternative instead of a stethoscope. This project
aims in sending alert messages in emergency times, i.e. when a person is alone in
home or traveling if he got heart attack or met with an accident then alerting
messages will be send to the mobile phone. Here we get the alerting message
from the GSM modem (SMS Message). The functioning of this device is based
on the truth that the blood circulates for every one heart beat which can be sensed
by using a circuit formed by the combination of an LDR and LED. Depending
upon the rate of circulation of blood per second the heart beat rate per minute is
calculated. This device consists of a micro controller which takes the input from
the heart beat sensor and calculates the heart rate of the patient. The micro
controller also takes the responsibility to convey the same information to the
remote system via wireless communication. For transmitting the data to the
remote system the controller is interfaced with a Zigbee transmitter. The Zigbee
transmitter transmits the data received from the controller and the Zigbee receiver
present at the GSM modem end receives it and also forward to the predefined
emergency mobile number using GSM modem in emergency situations. The
technical brilliance and development in different fields has led to a drastic in our
lives, one among them is embedded systems. The application of these devices is
to monitor the patient health status. Zigbee technology enables doctor to monitor
the patients conditions even sitting in his room. Doctor will get call when
patients body temperature and heart beat rises so that he can take precautionary
.measures even though he will be in remote place. Patient care takers can monitor
the equipment easily.
The main objective of this project is:
Monitoring the heart beat through wireless.

Real time monitoring of health status of a person.

Sends alerts in the form of SMS messages to emergency ambulance.
Works anywhere in the world (with GSM availability).
Secure wireless communication over Zigbee.

Technical Requirement:Following Technical Requirement should be fulfilled for successful project

execution in hospitals.
1. 24 Hours electricity (in case of Load Shedding, Generators are other
ultimate sources must be available)
2. Mobile Network Signals Strength should be strong at the place of Device
