Design and Construction of a Prototype Device, for Measurement of Environmental Variables in a Unit of Critical Patients, in Health Institutions

The article makes an analysis of how environmental conditions have been studied, and how they affect patients in Critical Patient Units (UPC), in order to determine the importance of these physical variables in health care. A general device model is established as the basis for choosing suitable sensors for the system to be created. And the device for measuring environmental conditions for UPC rooms with the chosen sensors is developed; which contemplates an interface using the Android platform with Bluetooth protocol. For tests, the UPC environment is simulated in a Laboratory to carry out the measurements. The results of the measurements are obtained, and compared with the reference values to determine the accuracy of the device. The project responded to the requirements raised, and will serve as the basis for generating a new feasible marketing team.
