Health monitoring system for seniors in Cuba. Conceptual architecture

Abstract

This article proposes remote health monitoring, based on IoT, to increase your probability of survival in medical emergencies and your quality of life. The different scenarios where older adults carry out their daily lives are analyzed and a general architecture of the system is presented. With remote health monitoring, data is collected on the status of the elderly adult, in a discreet and non-invasive way. In the event of anomalies or emergency situations, their family members, caregivers or the emergency system are notified to assist them in a timely manner. With these systems, falls are also detected and elderly people suffering from dementia are followed and located.
