OBJECTIVES OF THE INVENTION
• To use a smart pillow to monitor a patient's health.
• To improve the patient's sleep quality.
• To determine the health status of the patient.
• To notify the guardian if the patient's condition deteriorates.
• Using buzzer sounds to save the patient's life.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Pillows are an essential part of people's lives, and getting enough sleep is essential for a healthy and normal workday. And whether or not the pillow height is of sufficient quality, which directly impacts people's sleep, can have an impact on human health. A Remote Healthcare System can remotely capture important health data such as contactless body temperature and provide prompt aid when needed. With busy work schedules, maintaining a healthy lifestyle has become impossible. The solution to the aforesaid problems is a smart health monitoring system. Different types of stakeholders, such as clinicians, patients, doctors, and other organizations, make up a smart healthcare system. Even some hospitals have begun to adopt smart beds, which can detect a patient's current state without the need for a nurse. Smart health monitoring health devices provide a number of useful characteristics, including preventing unnecessary hospital visits and allowing doctors to check the real-time condition of patients remotely. Hackers cannot access the data generated by these devices. Today's healthcare services are expensive, and these devices assist to alleviate this problem, which is a significant advancement in the medical profession.

The patient monitoring system keeps track of the patient's heart rate, body temperature, ECG, respiration, noninvasive blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and other vitals. These vitals are remotely monitored with equipment that wirelessly transmits patient data to distant locations. This innovation includes a smart pillow that can detect whether a patient's health is normal or abnormal based on their body temperature, sleep habits, and other characteristics. The package includes a heart rate sensor, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, pressure sensor, PIR sensor, pulse sensor, and buzzer. These sensors use a smart pillow to collect patient data and send it to a cloud server for study of the patient's condition. This innovation uses an Artificial Neural Network Algorithm to assess a patient's health status, whether normal or abnormal. If the patient's health is abnormal and the threshold value of patient input parameters is going high or low, a buzzer attached to the smart pillow will emit a continuous beep sound. It will sound a buzzer to warn the patient's guardian. Another aspect of this invention is that it uses a PIR and a pressure sensors datas are sent to the guardian about the patient's aberrant health state when the guardian crosses the patient during the night. PIR sensor placed close to a pillow by someone who is close to the sufferer. After that, the patient can apply extra pressure to the pillow. This pressure will be monitored by a pressure sensor, and an automatic buzzer will sound a warning if the pressure on the cushion is too high. Further, the patient's guardian will be notified, and the patient's life will be saved.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Remote patient monitoring is a type of healthcare delivery that collects patient data outside of regular healthcare facilities using the latest breakthroughs in information technology. The goal of remote patient management is to move more healthcare out of traditional settings and into people's homes. Continuous glucose monitors, which remind diabetes patients to take their insulin while allowing their physician to monitor the disease, and digital blood pressure monitors, which allow patients to send their blood pressure and blood oxygen levels to their doctors remotely, are common examples of remote health monitoring devices. This concept uses an intelligent pillow with embedded sensors and a Raspberry Pi to provide remote patient monitoring.
Intelligent Pillow:
This cushion is made to keep track of a patient's health as they sleep. Because it is sometimes difficult for guardians and even nurses to keep track of a patient's physical condition. This pillow can keep track of their health at all times and alert a guardian by sounding a buzzer alarm. In the event of an emergency, it will assist the patient in saving their life.
Temperature sensor and Heart beat sensor
The temperature of the patient's forehead is measured using a temperature sensor placed in the pillow. The heartbeat of the patient is also measured every second using a heart beat sensor. These sensors' data is taken from the patient's body and transferred to a Raspberry Pi for further analysis of the patient's health problems.
Humidity sensor
The Humidity Sensor is used to detect the breathing behaviour of patients when they are sleeping.
Pressure sensor
In a wide range of settings, pressure sensors can monitor a patient's state by providing definite and trustworthy diagnostics. This can involve measuring blood pressure, monitoring oxygen therapy effectiveness in oxygen concentrators, automating drug infusion by giving the correct volume and rate of fluid in infusion pumps, and even monitoring oxygen therapy effectiveness in oxygen concentrators.
PIR Sensor
When the patient is sleeping, this invention uses a PIR sensor to detect movements near the patient.
Pulse Sensor
The pulse sensor records the patient's pulse rate every second. It's utilised to spot people who are starting to decompensate due to respiratory problems. It evaluates and monitors critically ill patients. Determine whether the patient is hypoxic and, in conjunction with the respiratory rate and heart rate, whether the patient is hypoxic.
Raspberry Pi Module
In this intelligent pillow, a Raspberry Pi-optimized version of the Linux distribution Debian is employed. The Raspberry Pi is running Debian, a Raspberry Pi-optimized Linux distribution. It's based on the same processor as the Raspberry Pi 4 and, as a result, offers better performance than previous models. It gathers data from sensors and sends it to the cloud for analysis of patient health.
Buzzer
A buzzer is a gadget that emits an audible signal. It can transform audio signals to sound and alert the patient's guardian if anything is wrong.
