Abstract

Epilepsy patients are susceptible to fits. These fits can be as frequent as 10-15 times a day and the main problem is that the patient has no memory that he has had a Fit Attack. There is a great need to monitor the epilepsy patients and to inform the concerned doctor for analysis which is not possible in now a day’s hectic Work schedule where in both the parents are either working or 24 Hours Nurse is very expensive. The objectives of this paper were to continuously keep a track of all the patient’s activity using a mobile phone. Also we are differentiating between the types of Epilepsy. The user has to choose the epilepsy type and then the software will monitor various activities such as fall detection, Haphazard body movement, Urination, Loud noises and also develop an android app. Depending upon the type of activity the Android App will keep a track of Fits. We are sending an SMS to doctor and parents as soon as the fits start as well as an SMS when the FIT ends .The main idea of this is to monitor and analyze the Epilepsy attack and also track the progress of patient with in a given period of time.
