 INTRODUCTION
In this modern age, with the advancement of technologies, with
each passing day comes a new exotic disease. With aging population and
increasing obesity levels, it becomes more and more necessary to
succeed in detecting, treating and controlling vulnerable illness.
Researches suggest that compared with the conventional methods of
monitoring blood pressure (BP), heart rate and body temperature in a
doctor’s clinic, intensive 24h ambulatory monitoring can provide
superior data for predicting risk of serious cardiovascular events and
other maladies.

SUMMARY
 PROPOSED METHOD
In this approach, we compensate for the drawbacks of above
papers by integrating blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature
measurement into a single device, not just displaying the values but also
indicating whether it’s normal or abnormal through smartphone. The
device is made compatible with smartphone through a suitable software.
This method saves a doctor’s visit. It also increases the accuracy and
precision compared to the others. It’s convenient as one can monitor
their blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature using a single
device.
