This study introduces an integrated health monitoring system for accurate vital sign measurement and disease prediction. The system achieved 98.8% measurement accuracy, improving healthcare diagnostics.
Area of Science:
- Biomedical Engineering
- Health Informatics
- Artificial Intelligence in Medicine
Background:
- Healthcare faces challenges in disease diagnosis and prediction due to human error and measurement inaccuracies.
- Technological advancements in medical devices have transformed healthcare delivery.
- Existing systems may lack comprehensive vital parameter analysis and integration.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop an integrated health monitoring system for measuring vital parameters and predicting diseases.
- To analyze the impact of emotions on vital signs using biometric data.
- To create a user-friendly interface for clinicians and smartphone users via the Internet of Things.
Main Methods:
- Determination of blood gas percentages through breathing analysis.
- Measurement of vital parameters and analysis of their correlation with emotional states.
- Implementation of a supervised learning model for disease prediction based on biometric data.
- Validation of results against the Omron device, a recognized reference standard.
Main Results:
- The proposed system demonstrated high measurement accuracy, reaching 98.8%.
- The system successfully expanded the database of vital parameters and provided emotional impact analysis.
- The diagnostic accuracy for COVID-19 reached 64% using the developed model.
- A user interface was developed for both clinical and mobile applications.
Conclusions:
- The integrated health monitoring system effectively addresses limitations in current disease diagnosis and prediction.
- The system enhances the accuracy of vital parameter measurement and offers novel insights into emotional influences.
- The developed Internet of Things-based platform facilitates broader accessibility for healthcare monitoring.
