Abstract
This research has developed a prototype of Data Transfer System for Health Monitoring by sending patients’ temperature through the Internet network to follow up the temperature of those patients who live in the remote area with difficulties accessing the medical system. The patients’ temperatures are analyzed by using the decision tree created by the researcher. The abnormality of the temperature is analyzed using three factors; sex, age, and the patients’ body appearance. When the system detects that there is an abnormality in a patient’s temperature, it will alert and notify the concerned people respectively. According to the research, it is found that the patients’ temperatures followed up by the prototype was accurate and reliable. The information can also be applied for sending patients’ vital sign to the doctor for more convenience in following up and monitoring each patients health; moreover, in case of emergency, caretakers can decide when it is necessary to bring the patient to the hospital, so that the doctor can examine and treat the patient in time.
