Evaluation of a Medical Alert Communication Infrastructure Based on Fuzzy Logic and IoT Devices

摘要

Currently telemedicine systems have been used more frequently for remote monitoring of vital signs of patients, likewise it is common to use low cost technologies to achieve systems of easy access and maintenance. In this way, Internet devices of things and cloud computing acquire arelevant role in the implementation of these systems. However, response times should be a priority, especially for a medical alert control system, which should alert a critical event in the least amount of time possible. This article presents the results of a response time evaluation of afuzzy logic controlled telemedicine alert system that, in addition to storing a patient’s heart pulse on a server, transmits information to a receiver, and fulfills some condition, sends an alert, it is also possible to optimize response times by performing parallel processing throughan asynchronous task queue.
