Project: Health Monitoring System Jan 2004 -- August 2004
Client: DigiWeb Limited, United Kingdom
Description: The automated hospital system was designed to keep track of the health of patients in the hospital. This would be accomplished by monitoring different vital parameters. The system would have to be designed to monitor all the patients simultaneously. For efficient monitoring of each patient in the hospital, the database must, at any given instant, have the latest value of each parameter for each patient. If the value of any parameter for a patient exceeds the normal permissible value, a doctor has to be alerted so that he could attend to the patient at the right time.
