Abstract
For the hospital environment information technology (IT) is essential, as it determines the quality of hospitalization of patients, and creates patterns that help organize medical activity conceptually, therefore it determines the quality of medical care, and ultimately it determines the security of patients and hospital personnel, both from the point of view of monitoring in real-time gas concentration (oxygen, CO, CO2) in hospital rooms, air humidity, air temperature, and pressure. The system the authors designed and developed is an application of Telemedicine with the main purpose to streamline the patients' and medical personnel's security in case of fire or an over-limit concentration of harmful gases. Data gathered by sensors are processed by a microcontroller and it is sent every quarter of an hour to medical personnel smartphones in a user-friendly graphical display.
