A smart system connecting e-health sensors and the cloud

—This paper presents the design and implementation of an e-health smart networked system. The system is aimed to prevent delays in the arrival of patients’ medical information to the healthcare providers, particularly in accident and emergency situations, to stop manual data entering, and to increase beds capacity in hospitals, especially during public events where a large number of people are meeting in one place. The architecture for this system is based on medical sensors which measure patients physical parameters by using wireless sensor networks (WSNs). These sensors transfer data from patients’ bodies over the wireless network to the cloud environment. Therefore, patients will have a high quality services because the e-heath smart system supports medical staff by providing real-time data gathering, eliminating manual data collection, enabling the monitoring of huge numbers of patients.
