Abstract

Parkinson’s disease does not cause immediate danger but it should be monitored continuously because not at any time symptoms can easily observed. Aimed at saving time and costs for patients, as well as the patients cannot always go to the hospital for checking health, in this paper, we present architecture of a system to remotely monitor patients with Parkinson’s disease. The system could help tracking the status of Parkinson patients at home. Movement information of patient’s tremor hand is acquired then sent to central unit via GPRS. At the central unit, the data is collected, stored in 24-hour format and displayed in a tabular or continuous graph. By that mean, doctors can monitor and diagnose the status of the patients.
