| Abstract |
Smart Healthcare is one of the core infrastructure elements in building smart cities, an initiative taken up by Indian government recently. This emphasizes the need for developing smart solutions to provide better quality healthcare services to all masses. As, India has the highest number of child mortality in the world due to inadequate healthcare, malnutrition and poor sanitation, all of which can be prevented. We present in this paper, a generic system to address healthcare issue, where a common platform to store and retrieve complete child medical history information. It includes mandatory vaccination schedule details of child along with the previous medical history records. Reminders to provide timely vaccinations to their child are also provided to alert parents to give their child health protection. Using Web and Mobile based technology, parents and doctors get access of the child's medical reports online anywhere, anytime with required privileges. This work helps both parents and doctors to provide better quality healthcare services. Finally, the collection of data can further be analyzed to find the trends and pattern of diseases and this can pave a new beginning in the field of engineering and medical research for better and quality living. |
