Development Of A Medical Monitoring Prototype For Remote Patients Through The Implementation Of The Internet Of Medical Things.

In this technological development research project, the design and implementation of a prototype of a pulse oximeter for remote monitoring of patients using Internet of Medical Things technologies was carried out. Regarding the methodology implemented for the development of this prototype, the Pressman waterfall life cycle model was taken as a reference. It began with the analysis of requirements through an interview with a health professional, and based on the data obtained from the interview, the design of an oximeter prototype was carried out using the Espressif ESP32-S microcontroller and the MAX30102 oximetry module. The prototype was subjected to an evaluation through the application of a pilot test to three people, using data from a Yobekan YBK-303 commercial oximeter as a means of validation. The data obtained from the implementation of the prototype with respect to the commercial oximeter were the following: (a) in the measurement of the heart rate the data were the same and (b) in the Oxygen Saturation (SpO2), a difference of 1% was obtained.
