Detection of Cardiac Arrest Using Internet of Things

Abstract

The development of an Arduino based system for wireless to sense the heartbeat. Detection of cardiac arrest using internet of things system helps to inform if a person is about to have a heart attack. By detecting the heart beat level and informs as before long because the heart beat level doesn't fall inside the permissible limit.In India, many people are dying because of heart attacks and the reason behind this factor is that they are not getting proper help during the period. To give them timely and proper help, the patient health should be continuously monitored. The fixed monitoring system can be used only when the patient is lying on bed and these systems are huge and only available in the hospitals in ICU. The proposed system is developed for home use by patients that are not in a critical condition but need to be timely monitored by a doctor or family. Thus the system can be used to save the life of many people and the system alerts the doctor about the patient’s heart beat level. The proposed system consists of two circuits. One is that the transmitter circuit that is with the patient and therefore the alternative is that the receiver circuit that is being supervised by the doctor or hospital or family member. The system makes use of Heart Beat Sensor and PPG sensor. The heartbeat sensor used to monitor the heart beat level and display it on the watch screen. PPG sensor is used to monitor the pulse rate. The patient's pulse rate is low, the message passed to the doctor or hospital or family members. The hospital can arrange the ambulance by tracking the location of the patient’s using their mobile number. So that it can easily save many lives by providing them quick service.
