Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) has garnered a lot of interest since the various emerging technologies made it possible to think of; and implement such a concept. Remote monitoring concept raises a lot of interesting possibilities, and helps to address different issues continually faced with effective patient administration. Some notable issues are managing patients in remote areas, monitoring (elderly) patients in their own homes and saving hospital bills. The design presented in this paper is unique in creating portable embedded system based on ARM processor that facilitates RPM using wired, wireless communication and cellular technology. The proposed system implements ZigBee interface for wireless communication and GSM for mobile based remote monitoring along with wired web interface. It is observed that, wired interface provides reliability in communication while wireless interface gives flexibility in patient movement whereas cellular interface provides solution for emergency situations.
