TELEFIT – An IoT enabled health care Device

Amidst this uncertain situation of the Covid pandemic happening worldwide, It is necessary to protect the health workers too. Since they are more prone to the dangerous virus than any other. To reduce the risk of virus infection spreading to Health care workers, this paper proposes the concept of wearing a smart Healthwear band, an IoT monitoring device integrated with a mobile application for monitoring the patients with a contact-less mechanism. Healthware is placed on the Covid infected patients which sense the temperature, pulse, and oxygen level of the patient. This was monitored manually before with the equipment present in the hospitals. This Health wear device automatically collects the data of patients and alerts the Nurses and doctors in case of emergencies. This reduces the contact of Healthcare workers with infected patients. This paper briefly describes the working of the IoT enabled healthcare device and the methodology used in detail. The cost of the proposed device is very less compared to other existing systems.
