M-VITAL: ACİL SERVİSLER VE COVID-19 VAKALARI İÇİN VİTAL PARAMETRELERİ ÖLÇMEK VE İLETMEK İÇİN UZMAN SİSTEM DESTEKLİ TIBBİ MASKE

Abstract

Technology advanced to remote observation of patients from hospitals to homes. The aim of remote monitoring can be tracing the illness or the situation of patient. When accidents or sudden injuries occurs, time while patients are being transferred to hospital is important. Here, remote monitoring is helpful for immediate medical interventions in highly critical cases. In this study M-Vital was developed for detecting vital signs like temperature, pulse, respiration rate and saturation. Location of patient was detected via embedded GPS module. These information were automatically sent to National Emergency Call Center via SMS. Thus, possible human originated errors and time because of thrill or communication were aimed to be minimized. Besides, these vital parameters were saved and evaluated via an expert system to detect a vital problem. In case of a vital problem, emergency code was sent to National Emergency Call Center (112) or to any other special number. Another usage area of M-Vital is detection and tracing Covid-19. Temperature, respiration rate and saturation are the main symptoms. This study has a novelty since wide variety of effective parameters are included. Besides, it has a high potential for using in hospitals to ease the load of medical staff.
