Abstract

This document is focused on the designing of a prototype to be used in telemedicine called “Doctor PI” capable of receiving, transmitting, viewing, alerting, and storing data acquired by nine biomedical sensors, such as glucometer, pulse and oxygen sensor, blood pressure sensor, EMG, ECG, patient position sensor, galvanic response sensor, body temperature sensor and breathing airflow sensor, for elder people around rural areas of Ecuador. The prototype consists of an electronic health system, which in conjunction with Arduino, GSM, and Raspberry Pi will process and store the data for the medical sheet and patient analysis. The physiological parameters obtained are stored in a Raspberry Pi database and displayed via web or mobile APP. SMS alerts will be obtained in case the measured parameters exceed or decrease the values parameterized by the doctor. This prototype aims to help expand telemedicine in rural areas of Ecuador through IoT technologies with low-cost hardware and internet connectivity.
