Abstract :
The Health Care System of a nation is the contribution of different areas like medical sciences, Biomedical engineering and Information Technology. Telemedicine is a promising technology which combines telecommunication and Information Technology for health care management. Telemedicine provides quality health care irrespective of socio economic and geographical constraints. It delivers health care services between remote patients and doctors. There is a huge demand for automating the patient´s data gathering, building it to access in real-time by achieving reliability. With the advent of gaining popularity in cloud computing, the way data is shared and exchanged in healthcare systems is changed. It provides leasing model, scalability and data access capability without geographical limitations. In this paper, we focus on the design of a Cloud framework for Health Monitoring System (CHMS). It collects patients health data and publishes them to a Cloud information repository. Further it facilitates analysis of the data using services hosted in the Cloud.
