Design of a Smart Medical Bracelet Prototype for COVID-19 based on Wireless Sensor Networks

Abstract

According to World Health Organization, Coronavirus (COVID-19) is the disease caused by the new corona virus that emerged in China in December 2019. In this proposal, we propose a research project idea of a Corona Virus symptoms using high-temperature body. This project is a part of early prevention and to help control the emerging Corona epidemic (COVID-19). The last decade has seen a proliferation of fields of application for wireless sensor networks (WSNs). One of these promising areas is health, where the wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can provide important support that makes it easier to monitor patients' vital signs and send alerts in real time. This will help medical personnel to intervene in a timely manner in the event of complications. In this paper, we present the hardware and software design of wireless sensor networks based Intelligent Medical Bracelet (IMB) for the measurement and storage of body temperature and heartbeat values. The IMB also allows three types of alert to be triggered if one of the vital signs is exceeded.
