hello
can anyone give me any idea about (Remote monitoring of patient teperature)
can anyone give me any idea about (Remote monitoring of patient teperature)
The discussion focuses on the implementation of remote monitoring systems for patient temperature using wireless technology. Key components include RFID technology, microcontrollers, and RF transmitter/receiver systems. The Tan Tock Seng Hospital's use of RFID for temperature monitoring is highlighted as a case study. Participants emphasize the need for specific sensors, data transmission methods, and the challenges related to certification and liability in medical applications.

What are you trying to do
mgb_phys said:Do you want to measure a patient's temperature from a distance by infrared
or do you want to transmit the date from a digital thermometer to a remote point?
mgb_phys said:You need to get the data out of the thermometer (probably a serial link)
Then you need to identify an individual thermometer, either by having a separate channel for each or by tagging the data with an id.
Then you just need a central receiever/display.
ps. It's not worth it, the certification/liability costs means that you can't build anything for medical use for less than $<VERY LARGE NUMBER>
mgb_phys said:So you have an existing wireless data link that you need to interface to?
Talk to the maker/get the specs, we can;t really help with that
