A Centralized Health Monitoring System Using Health Related Sensors Integrated to the Mobile

This article describes how health sensors, which measure health parameters, are miniaturized to fit the size of a mobile. They aim to integrate these sensors along with a mobile so as to provide data measurement to the vast population which use the mobile, and thus, create regional grid networks. The authors aim to use the mobile for updating health parameters as well as be the focal point of communication of the health information. As a result, the mobile would provide targeted distribution of the health information, which is advantageous compared to the traditional means of mass distribution of information. Also, a mobile acts as a focal point of gathering health related parameters, it provides a twofold advantage for setting up a low-cost region-specific health monitoring system.
