Abstract:
This project presents a smart health monitoring smartwatch designed to support
individuals particularly those with chronic health conditions or elderly populations in
managing their health more effectively. The device continuously records essential
physiological parameters and transmits the data directly to hospital information
systems, enabling healthcare professionals to access patient health information at any
time without requiring hospital visits.The smartwatch incorporates integrated
miniature sensors to monitor eight key parameters: blood glucose level, body
temperature, movement (including tremors), blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory
rate, daily physical activity, and stress level. These indicators are highly relevant for
the management of medical conditions such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and
respiratory disorders. The system also evaluates physical activity levels and detects
stress, contributing to overall health maintenance.One of the most notable features of
the system is its ability to transmit health data to hospitals in real time. Each
smartwatch is linked to the user’s personal medical record, allowing physicians to
review current data, compare it with historical records, and identify potential health
concerns before symptoms manifest. When abnormal or potentially dangerous
conditions are detected such as a rapid heart rate or low blood glucose levels, the
device immediately issues an alert to both the user and the nearest hospital. This
capability can be lifesaving in emergency situations, particularly when the individual
is alone or unable to seek help.In addition to emergency alerts, the smartwatch
provides continuous health monitoring, allowing healthcare professionals to observe
gradual changes in a patient’s condition over time. By using the patient’s own medical
history, the system delivers personalised health insights rather than generalised
warnings. All data transmissions are secured through encrypted communication to
ensure patient privacy and confidentiality. The smartwatch is lightweight,
ergonomically designed, and easy to operate, making it suitable for daily use. It is
intended to integrate seamlessly into everyday life while promoting better health
outcomes and enabling healthcare providers to deliver more effective patient care.
