IoT Based Neonatal Patient Monitoring System

A new born infant has an increased level of physiological sensitivity compared to an adult. So, the monitoring techniques used in the case of neonates must possess an uttermost accuracy with precise emergency alert systems. This paper presents an innovative approach to neonatal monitoring by incorporating multiple modalities of sensing and data manipulation for a smart infant supervision. The inbuilt warmers and phototherapy mechanisms ensure a safer and automated ambience for the infant care alongside the physiological monitor. The collected data from sensors is processed by Arduino Mega microcontroller and the output is viewed on the serial monitor and serial plotters of the Arduino IDE.
