Description
Summary:After the arrival of SARS COV2 (COVID 19) many biomedical devices have been innovated to mitigate the impact of the pandemic. Despite this, none have been developed to monitor patients with mild symptoms or the asymptomatic from their homes, forcing many hospitals worldwide to send these patients home with poor surveillance measures. The main objective of this project is to monitor from the HOMIL the vital signs of COVID 19 patients, who are currently isolated in their homes. For this purpose, a biomedical device in the form of a lowcost smartband has been developed. It is linked to a mobile application connected to a database where heart rate, oxygen saturation, and temperature parameters are sent in real time. The development was proposed in phases, which involve physical design, data acquisition and processing, and subsequent trial at the HOMIL. The smartband design and the mobile application has been developed, wireless communication between sensors has been achieved. Furthermore, the plan is to provide the HOMIL with the capability of initiating emergency protocols. The use of the smartband will be encouraged in patients who have tested positive for COVID 19 through PCR and will be taken off once they test negative.
