Prospect for Designing Wearable Devices for Children’s Asthma Attack Detection Based on Internet of Things and Cloud Computing

Abstract

Indonesia’s geographical location as an archipelago makes this country has a humid tropical climate. This climate will affect asthmatics. Asthma attacks a patient suddenly, this is very dangerous especially if the patient is a child. Before attacking usually, asthma will react to the body with the characteristics of changes in breathing frequency, pulse frequency, mild, severe, even to the point of stopping breathing. Asthma attacks will be very dangerous for children who are not under the supervision of their parents (being in school for example). It can be imagined if asthma with severe clusters aims. The purpose of this study is to propose the design of wearable-type devices used in children at home to facilitate monitoring of asthma attacks through the internet network.
