Abstract

Due to the fast growing population of aged people, remote health monitoring becomes highly essential. An increasing number of users are surrounded by multiple computing devices such as PDAs and cell phones. Use of mobile devices in health care might improve decision-making and reduce the numbers of medical errors but, it is not commonly used in telemedicine and health care, due to the lack of suitable functions and software applications. The present study is to develop a mobile guiding system with User Interface for blood pressure monitoring. On the other hand in the 3rd era of computing, wireless and remote health monitoring solution provides simple, compact, robust and cheaper solution to different categories of patient. In this project a simple and convenient blood pressure measurement for aged with efficient guiding tool design which is the mobile phone application for health management and self monitoring on the top of Java 2 Micro Edition can be achieved.
