Introduction :
The need for well-equipped hospitals

and diagnostic centers is increasing day by day as the people are becoming more conscious about their health problems. All of these units are designed to offer the advantage of the low Nurse Patient ratio and concentration of the equipment and the resources needed; to take care of critically ill or seriously injured units. Most hospitals call Medical surgical emergency team by beeper annunciation or public annunciation system.

Introduction-continued
In order to

over-come all these difficulties we have decided to complete our project on such as biomedical system which will continuously monitor the body parameters of the patient under treatment.For this we are going to designed a well known system called Data Acquisition System.

Literature Survey
Conventional

Methods

Doctors are used a Stethoscope for

measuring Pulse Rate and Sphygmomanometer for measuring blood Pressure. For ECG monitoring Doctors are used Dry Electrodes or Jelly Type Electrode.

Block Diagram Description

Total block diagram is divided into two modes, they are

Data

acquisition mode. and SMS sending mode

Uploading

Data

acquisition mode

The main block

is ARM-7 micro controller which is heart of the System which provides monitoring of different parameters. It senses signals from input blocks and processes output blocks. The software program is stored in ARM-7 microcontroller on chip memory, according to which it provides the acquisition and send actions The on chip ADC converts these parameters into digital form and gives to the ARM-7 microcontroller.

Uploading

and SMS sending mode

The system adopts

framework design thought of module and other function modules The main control module is mainly up to human computer interaction, communication with functional modules, data storage, data transmission, etc. Through controlling the main functional module, the user may operate the functional module as well as other system functions and the data will be saved in the main control module All the parameters are send through GSM Modem as per requirement.

ARM7 Features

16-bit/32-bit ARM7TDMI-S microcontroller in a tiny LQFP64 package 8 Kb to 40 Kb of on-chip static RAM and 32 Kb to 512 Kb of onchip flash memory USB 2.0 Full-speed compliant device controller with 2 Kb of endpoint RAM Multiple serial interfaces including two UARTs (16C550), two Fast I2C-bus (400 Kbit/s), SPI and SSP with buffering and variable data length capabilities. One or two (LPC2141/42 vs. LPC2144/46/48) 10-bit ADCs provide a total of 6/14 analog inputs, with conversion times as low as 2.44 ms per channel. Single 10-bit DAC provides variable analog output (LPC2142/44/46/48 only).

Application
This

proposed system is expected to monitor the electrical activity of heart of the patient under critical care more conveniently and accurately for diagnosing which can be interfaced with computer to bring it under a network system widely for the doctor to monitor the patients condition sitting in his own office without being physically present near to the patients bed

Conclusion
Sometimes

for some special patients need to be monitored Patients heart condition regularly even if patient is not in the hospital and again doctor may want to check different patients condition simultaneously without going to their bed physically. Our proposed system is expected to serve this kind of purpose more conveniently The main goal of proposed system is to meet the demand of low cost, low power consumption, small volume and real-time
