Abstract :
A portable mobile real time oxygen monitoring auto-ventilation system using a mobile phone, oximeter, mass gas flow controller, and a portable oxygen cylinder is proposed. The system consists of a tele-monitoring system and an oxygen tele-controller system. The tele-monitoring system consists of a mobile phone and a portable oximeter. The oximeter transmits the blood oxygen level and heart rate to the mobile phone for real time monitoring. The oxygen tele-controller consists of a mobile phone, mass gas controller, oxygen cylinder, and an oxygen mask. The mobile phone is used to control the mass gas controller to supply the patient with oxygen based on the real time monitoring values. The proposed system is designed to develop a portable mobile oxygen monitoring system for oxygen delivery at home and on the go activities for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and hypoxia related disease patients.
