Post Surgery Pain And Position Monitoring Alert System

Abstract

Blockchain has an interesting use in biomedical research and education. In clinical trials, blockchain can help to eliminate falsification of data and the underreporting or exclusion of undesirable results of clinical research. Blockchain makes it easier for patients to grant permission for their data to be used for clinical trials because of the anonymization that is inherently encoded in the data. Patients after an operation usually go through the recovery/ rehabilitation process where they follow a strict routine that will be done by sensors. After the major surgery as per instruction from surgeon, patient should maintain a fixed position or else the patient may have internal bleeding. The position will be monitored by MEMS (Micro Electromagnetic System) Sensor. Position is generally determined in three position x, y, z. If the patient continuously changes the position, it will be updated through web server. With the help
of this updation, nurses or ward in-charge can get alert without direct monitoring. Strong emotion can cause stimulus to the sympathetic nervous system. Due to this condition one can able to know the pain or stress level using Pain Sensor which arises
after surgery will be viewed through the web page and alerts through buzzer also.

Technology or Method: Blockchain technology has the great potential in creating secure and effective healthcare ecosystems with its inherent unique properties. Overall, blockchain has a wide range of possibilities in healthcare, which invites many research
opportunities in this space.
Results: On the basis of readings recorded from the sensor, the pain level around the suture region and posture change of the patient can be monitored.
