Abstract


Following a surgery, patients are monitored in an ICU till physically stable, after which are discharged to a ward for further evaluation and recovery. Usually, ward evaluation does not imply continuous physiological parameters observance and so patient relapse is not uncommon. The current paper describes the steps taken to style and build an affordable modular monitoring system prototype. This system aims to supply mobile support so as to facilitate quicker and better medical interventions in emergency cases and has been developed using low-power dedicated sensor arrays for temperature, blood pressure, eye blinking and movement. The interfaces for these sensors have been developed according to the IoT model: a central control unit exposes a restful based Web interface that ensures a platform agnostic behavior and provides a versatile mechanism to integrate new components.
