ABSTRACT

In the evolving situation of highly infectious coronavirus, the number of 

confirmed cases in India has largely increased, which has resulted in a 

shortage of health care resources. Thus, the Ministry of Health and Family 

Welfare- Government of India issued guidelines for the ‘Home isolation 

of COVID-19 positive patients’ methodology for asymptomatic patients or 

with mild symptoms. During home isolation, the patients are required to 

monitor and record the pulse rate, body temperature, and oxygen saturation 

three times a day. This paper proposes a system that can request data from 

the required sensor to measure the pulse rate, body temperature, or oxygen 

saturation. The requested data is sensed by the respective sensor placed 

near the patients’ body and sent to the CAN data logger over the CAN bus. 

The CAN data logger live streams the sensor values and stores the same to 

an excel sheet along with details like the patient’s name, patient’s age, and 

date. The physicians can then access this information.
