Abstract :Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) and mobile devices have the ability of managing the health monitoring systems for medical care needing people. They provide mountable sensors and wireless sensors to ensure easy health monitoring. In the paper, a remote patient monitoring system is proposed as an android application together with wireless sensors for the patients. Our system has an easy to use structure. The data is collected by touching the finger of the patient. The gained data is sent to the patient's smartphone that has an android operating system. Then the data is transmitted to the hospital database and the patient’s doctor via patient’s medical record. Eventually, the system provides an easy medical data collecting and storing environment for medical people and patients.Keywords : Remote health monitoring, Wireless sensor networks, Sensor
