Oxyhealth Monitoring System

Abstract

According to the latest WHO data published in May 2014, the deaths resulting from car accidents reached 30,310 or 2.69% of total deaths in Pakistan [1]. Beside other causes, one of the main causes of deaths is the delay in providing first-aid. So with this motivation we designed a system which helps to provide immediate first-aid in case of an accident or any severe condition. The Oxyhealth Monitoring System (OMS) provides continuous monitoring of health parameters of a car’s driver such as saturation of oxygen in the blood (SpO2) and heart rate (HR) using optical bio-sensing chip. Therefore, in case of an accident the health parameters will be sent to the concerned helpline or any desired contact number via GSM module. Hence, a first-aid would be provided to the injured person by determining its location coordinates via GPS.
