Non-Invasive Real-Time Monitoring of Blood Pressure and Bood Glucose through Photoplethysmography leveraging IoMT and AI
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and diabetes are major health concerns globally, contributing significantly to mortality rates. Effective monitoring of these conditions is crucial for timely intervention and management. Traditional methods for monitoring blood pressure (BP) and blood glucose levels are often invasive, time-consuming, and costly, posing challenges, particularly in remote healthcare scenarios.
In this project, we propose the development of non-invasive monitoring techniques using photoplethysmography (PPG) coupled with deep learning algorithms. PPG offers a promising avenue for continuous monitoring due to its ubiquity and ease of use. By leveraging deep learning techniques, we aim to create accurate and reliable models for estimating both blood pressure and blood glucose levels.
The proposed solutions have the potential to revolutionize healthcare by enabling remote monitoring and timely intervention for individuals at risk of CVDs and diabetes. By providing accessible and non-invasive monitoring solutions, this project aims to improve the quality of healthcare delivery, particularly in resource-constrained settings.
