Design and Implementation of Smart Iot Framework For Medication and Meal Schedule Monitoring

Abstract

Monitoring medication schedule and diet is essential for patients with chronic diseases, older adults, and spatients with rigorous health monitoring requirements. This IoT-based real-time health reminder system is meant to monitor timely medication and healthy living through automatic reminders and real-time monitoring of adherence. The reminders are both audio and visual in nature to remind users to take medication or consume food. The execution of the action is tracked, designating the result as "Taken" or "Missed." Adherence data are transmitted to a cloud platform, allowing caregivers or family members to track remotely. The system allows the patient to manage his/her own health independently of caregivers and empowers caregivers with information to act immediately. Reminding and monitoring compliance automatically, the system prevents the risk of missed doses, enhances drug compliance, and streamlines long-term health care. Integrating IoT technology and real-time monitoring in a non-invasive process closes the drug timing and patient compliance loop and leads to enhanced health outcomes.
