Healthcare monitoring is now becoming part of everyday life. Today's healthcare industry aims to provide better healthcare to people anywhere, anytime in the world in economical and patient friendly manner. In this paper the physiological parameters like heart rate, body temperature, SpO2 and ECG signal are obtained and displayed using PIC18F45K22 Microcontroller. Body temperature, SpO2 and heart rate are displayed on LCD display and ECG signal is monitored on PC through Labview. If the abnormalities in the recorded parameters are detected, then an SMS alert will be sent to the physician. The system comprises of low cost ECG, SpO2 and temperature sensors along with the GSM modem.
