Abstract

In order to solve the medical assurance problem of remote-area patients, this paper studies the telemedicine consultation system and proposes a model with three subsystems which are separately front-end embedded diagnostic system, patients´ data information server and hospital monitoring terminal. It emphasizes the software and hardware realization of embedded diagnostic system, analyzes the collection process of temperature, heart rate and blood pressure under the coordination of the ARM system, GPRS module, GPS module and vital signs information collection module. The patient´s position system is also analyzed which is aimed at real-time monitoring of vital signs and remote assistant diagnosis and treatment.
