Syeda Shafia Zehra, Sohail Iqbal · 2019
With a tremendous advent of new technologies, the quality of human lives is changing day by day. The major focus is on how to improve the health care systems efficiency to help achieve greater life expectancy. Healthcare systems integrated with IoTs are built which generates timely results instead of going to hospitals just for a routine check up and can inform the near emergency care units in case of any anomaly. The elderly people are the ones who are in dire need of home based health assessment systems as they have a higher risk of getting diseases specially when they are living alone. The proposed home based improved health care system for the elderly people using fuzzy logic not only assess the physical health but it also assess the stress level of the patient which is often neglected. The data for physical health is collected using sensors and the data for mental health, in terms of stress level, is collected by taking different parameters into account. The proposed healthcare system can save the life of the elderly people by generating result at an early stage of physical illness or stress level so medical assistance can be timely provided.
