Real-Time Bone Fracture Monitoring System Using IOT

Abstract

As we all know bone is the major part of the human body. It provides the ability to move. Bone fractures are common in the human body. Even though the external fixation process is being followed widely there are so many complications arising which are significantly decreasing the treatment efficiency by increasing the period of recovery process and cost. The major reason is the inability to have continuous insight into the healing process and knowing how much pressure the fractured bone is taking during the recovery process for various patients' activities. In this paper we are proposing a system that will have capability to continuously monitor the fractured bone in real time for excess pressure and misalignment. This data is stored and made available for doctors to identify the condition and treat the patient if necessary.
