The population of elderly people and those suffering
from diseases is increasing in the developed countries.

It is one of the major challenges of the world

The quality of healthcare for patients to be improved by
using electronic health technologies and the applications
ofe-Health technologies.
INTRODUCTION
ABSTRACT
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) have attracted much
attention in recent years.

The applications of Wireless Sensor Network are immense.

Applications of Wireless sensor network in healthcare leads to
an area called Body Area Network (BAN) or Body sensor
Network.
Wireless sensor network:
The WSN is an emerging technology.

WSN consists of small portable devices equipped with a variety
of sensors (such as body temperature, pulse-rate, Blood pressure
and so on).

It is low cost .

It is low power consumption.
WIRELESS BODY AREA NETWORK(WBAN):

Based on the operating environments it can be classified into
two types:
1. One is called wearable body area network which is operated
on the surface of body.
2. Another one is called implantable body area network which is
operated inside the human body.


Types of WBAN :

The latest trends in the area of telemedicine and body
area networks are,

1) On-body implants,
2) In-body implants,
3) Health carts,

On-body implants are the sensors that are placed on the
body or that are sewed into the fabric (wearable sensors)
that can be worn.

These on-body and wearable sensors are capable of
monitoring the vital parameters like body temperature,
blood pressure, and ECG etc.

ON-BODY IMPLANTS:
SMART JACKET:

The smart jacket by Sibrecht Bouwstra and Dr. Wei Chen
from etal from TU/e University Netherlands is one of such
prototype for wearable sensor networks.

The smart jacket is used for continuous monitoring for
neonates.

MOBILE WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK:
The BAN based health care systems can be classified as the
following paradigms,
1) Mobile doctor terminal, Static patients with BAN.
2) Mobile patients terminals, static doctor terminal.
3) Mobile doctor as well as patients terminals


MOBILE BAN:RURAL HEALTHCARE:

CONCLUSION

In this research paper, various ideas related to utilization
of wireless sensor networks are suggested.

The Body Area Networks effectively enable monitoring
patient health and communicate with the doctor.

Various paradigms of Mobile WSNs for healthcare are
documented. Web-based medical advices system, called e-
vaidyam is proposed for effective and affordable
healthcare.
