Abstract
Due to strains on healthcare and staff shortages, longer lifespans and improved quality of life have led to inadequate healthcare, especially for individuals with epileptic seizures, particularly those living alone. To address this, engineers are focusing on wireless communication and technology to develop tools that alleviate pressure on healthcare. This study concentrates on monitoring patients during and after certain major or minor surgeries using wireless sensors (RFID) and an application in a smart room setup. The system relies on two sophisticated power measurement models for location detection, including lying down and falling. A neural network in MATLAB learns power transmission variations for accurate prediction. Simulations replicate empty room scenarios for lying down and falling positions. Data is stored in cloud databases and accessible through a real-time app using APIs and IoT technology. This research aims to enhance patient monitoring and response during incidents while lessening strain on healthcare systems.
