Abstract:
Cardiovascular disorder is the most leading cause of mortality worldwide, including Pakistan.
Most cardiac disease-related fatalities are abrupt and leave little time for medical assistance to be
given. Precautions are constantly necessary to avoid such impulsive unintentional deaths. In the
existing Internet of Things (IoT) domain for cardiovascular monitoring, just a few heart
parameters are addressed, sensors are dispersed, and needs physical patient in hospital for
healthcare monitoring purposes. Also, there is no system found in a Pakistan worked in a cardiac
domain. Thus, the ubiquitous healthcare mechanism for remote and real time monitoring of basic
and vital cardiac parameters is the best solution for all the health issues that cardiac patients of
all ages, especially the most vulnerable segments of the ageing population, are currently facing
in Pakistan. This approach intends to notably reduce unnecessary hospital visits, expensive travel
expenses, and the lengthy lines that are becoming intolerably uncomfortable for cardiac patients.
In addition, the continuous, nonstop monitoring of key cardiac parameters is another crucial
aspect of cardiac patients. Our proposed Medical Internet of Things (MIoT) kit is specifically
outfitted with all the required cardiac parameters, such as Blood Pressure (BP), Heart Rate,
Oxygen Level, Temperature, and Electrocardiography (ECG). The seamless delivery of an
integrated IoT solution in our country with the least amount of sensor dispersion is one of the
major key aspects of this arrangement. The system also consists of cloud application for
continuous and remote patient monitoring and alert mechanism to enable prompt intervention by
trained medical staff who will act correctly and at the appropriate moment to keep the frequency
of critical events to a minimal. Our proposed methodology has undergone testing in a real medical
setting. The testing of our system involves a total of 8 subjects. Both objective and subjective
testing are used to evaluate our system after it has been put into place. The testing and comparison
results have demonstrated that the proposed integrated kit values are significantly closer to the
device utilized at the doctor's end than the dispersed kit results.
