Abstract

Human resource is the foundation of developing and under developed nations. Almost all maternal deaths (99%) occur in developing countries. Everyday 830 women die due to pregnancy. In most of the developing countries and in the smart cities medical systems are not centralized for sharing of information. Most part of the pregnant ladies may not be able to do their customary checkups at the beginning time of pregnancy and this prompt higher death rate in case of infant and maternal in the rural areas. Due to these issues, the society is facing immense medical issues. In the existing strategy ultrasound sweep of the pregnant ladies is performed and along with that some fundamental signs are estimated, and it is handled by Bluetooth innovation. The disadvantage of the existing framework is that the ultrasound scan is costly and the Bluetooth innovation. To overcome this, in the proposed work Accelerometer sensor is made wireless and it is mainly used to measure the movement of the fetus and some vital parameters such as the temperature, heart rate and blood pressure for the women are measured by using different sensors. The measured parameters are transferred through IoT and it is viewed in the mobile phone. The proposed work concerns in developing a compact assist device for rural pregnant women to access the vital signs of maternal and fetus with low cost using recent sensors and internet of things for personalized care.
