INTRODUCTION
The concern for human welfare has caused the strong needs for a rapid,
continuous, no invasive sensor system of vital signs. Especially non-invasive and nonrestraining systems are required, because they could monitor health status over a prolonged
period. Pressure sensor & Heart beat sensors are used to measure the vital signs.
Blood pressure is the force of blood against the walls of arteries. Blood pressure is
recorded as two numbersthe systolic pressure (as the heart beats) over the diastolic
pressure (as the heart relaxes between beats). The measurement is written one above or
before the other, with the systolic number on top and the diastolic number on the bottom.
For example, a blood pressure measurement of 120/80 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) is
expressed verbally as "120 over 80." In this System we are not using Full
Sphygmomanometer, Half part only, Remaining Electronics parts which create analog
output as per increasing the AIR.
The measurements of BP are of a great importance because it is used for detection
of hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension is a continuous, consistent, and
independent risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease. Hypotension can cause the
blood supply to the brain, heart and other tissues to be too low, and hypertension is strongly
correlated with higher risk for cerebral stroke and heart infarct. Blood pressure measurement
is also important for particular disease patients, such as hemodialysis patients. Hence, in the
daily life, blood pressure measurement and management is very useful for handling health
situation and plays a preventive function.
PROBLEM STATEMENT
The most common method for measuring blood pressure is with a pressure cuff
hooked to a mercury manometer. A health care professional manually pumps the cuff to put
pressure on the artery. He or she then uses a stethoscope to time the noise of the blood
rushing through the artery (onset is systolic pressure), and the noise of the blood slowing to
the resting mode (diastolic pressure). Today, blood pressure monitoring has become much
easier and more efficient due to automated monitoring equipment. This equipment currently
is in place at most hospitals and pharmacies. To simplify the process even more, an at
home solid-state blood pressure monitor is now available. This trend toward smaller, more

portable medical equipment has resulted in the need for smaller electronics to control and
operate the equipment.
Here we proposed an innovation to respond to the problems by providing a novel
Blood pressure sensor and Heart beat sensor devices for monitoring heartbeat, blood
pressure. which displays the BP value on LCD display and enabling a user an indication if
any abnormality through GSM, and also blood pressure is monitored. The proposed
innovation will be programmed to automatically suggest the user about their health
conditions.
MOTIVATION
The Blood pressure, pulse rate level measured by the sensor is processed by the
ADC in the controller that data was read every second and stored on controller. The data
from controller unit was sent to base node via GSM network. Arm controller hard ware
and GSM module are packed in suitable case and can send a message and immediate call
to doctors mobile if any abnormal condition of patient.
This system can be used for a person who is not under the continuous observation
of doctor, can check his/her vital signs using the sensors in this project. If the sensors
output starts fluctuating above normal rate hence through GSM sends an indication to
doctors mobile immediately.

are
based
on
16-bit/32-bit
ARM7TDMI-S CPU with real-time emulation and embedded trace support, that combine
microcontroller with embedded high speed flash memory ranging from 32 KB to 512 KB. A
128-bit wide memory interface and unique accelerator architecture enable 32-bit code
execution at the maximum clock rate. For critical code size applications, the alternative 16-bit
Thumb mode reduces code by more than 30 % with minimal performance penalty.
Due to their tiny size and low power consumption, LPC2141/42/44/46/48 are ideal for
applications where miniaturization is a key requirement, such as access control and point-ofsale. Serial communications interfaces ranging from a USB 2.0 Full-speed device, multiple
UARTs, SPI, SSP to I2C-bus and on-chip SRAM of 8 KB up to 40 KB, make these devices
very well suited for communication gateways and protocol converters, soft modems, voice
recognition and low end imaging, providing both large buffer size and high processing power.
Various 32-bit timers, single or dual 10-bit. ADC(s), 10-bit DAC, PWM channels and 45 fast
GPIO lines with up to nine edge or level sensitive external interrupt pins make these
microcontrollers suitable for industrial control and medical systems.
TheARM7TDMI solution provides the low power consumption, small size, and high
performance needed in portable, embedded applications. The principle feature of the ARM 7
microcontroller is that it is a register based load-and-store architecture with a number of
operating modes. While the ARM7 is a 32 bit microcontroller, it is also capable of running a
16-bit instruction set, known as THUMB. This helps it achieve a greater code density and
enhanced power saving. While all of the register-to-register data processing instructions are
single-cycle, other instructions such as data transfer instructions, are multi-cycle. To increase
the performance of these instructions, the ARM 7 has a three-stage pipeline.
Due to the inherent simplicity of the design and low gate count, ARM 7 is the industry
leader in low-power processing on a watts per MIP basis. Finally, to assist the developer, the
ARM core has a built-in JTAG debug port and on-chip embedded ICE that allows programs
