Medical sensors implanted in vital organs record and monitor key vital signs to ensure effective functioning. Wireless sensor networks enable storage and analysis of this information, allowing doctors to remotely diagnose patients' health conditions. This is crucial for emergency healthcare.
Medical sensors are implanted within the vital organs of the human body to record and monitor the vital signs of pulse rate, heartbeat, electrocardiogram, body mass index, temperature, blood pressure, etc. to ensure their effective functioning. These are monitored to detect the patient's health from anywhere and at any time. The wireless sensor networks are embedded in the form of body area nets and are capable of sensing and storing the information on a digital device. Later this information could be inspected or even sent to a remotely located storage deuvice specifically (server or any public or private cloud for analysis) so that a medical doctor can diagnose the present medical condition of a person or a patient. Such a facility would be of immense help in the event of an emergency such as a sudden disaster or natural calamity where communication is damaged, and the potential sources become inaccessible. The aim of this paper is to create a mobile platform using mobile ad hoc network to support healthcare connectivity and treatment in emergency situations.
