Remote Patient Monitoring System
A real-time healthcare web application that enables continuous monitoring of patient vitals and emergency alerting for medical professionals.
Overview
The Remote Patient Monitoring System is a full-stack healthcare application designed to support real-time communication between patients and healthcare providers. Built with a Python Flask backend and a HTML/CSS/JavaScript frontend, the system allows medical professionals to remotely monitor patient vitals and respond quickly to abnormal health conditions.
Purpose & Impact
- Enables real-time monitoring of patient health data for medical staff
- Triggers automated alerts when vitals exceed safe thresholds
- Improves emergency response time in critical situations
- Reduces need for constant in-person monitoring
What Is Monitored
- BPM: Heart rate of the patient
- ECG: Live electrical activity of the heart
- SpO₂: Blood oxygen saturation levels
System Architecture
Backend
- Python – Core backend logic
- Flask – Server routing and API structure
- MongoDB – Database for patients, vitals, alerts
- CORS – Secure cross-origin requests
- Twilio API – Emergency SMS/email notifications
Frontend
- HTML – Page structure
- CSS – UI styling and layout
- JavaScript – Frontend logic and dynamic data handling
I contributed primarily to the frontend development, focusing on building the user interface and integrating real-time data interactions.
Role
Frontend Developer
- Designed and developed user interface components for healthcare dashboards
- Integrated frontend with backend API data
- Focused on usability in high-pressure medical environments
Final Design
Outcome
The system demonstrates how real-time data visualization and automated alert systems can improve healthcare responsiveness. It bridges backend infrastructure with an accessible frontend interface, enabling efficient monitoring of critical patient conditions.
