abstract = "Currently in Colombia, the coverage of medical services is not enough to fulfil the growing demand of patients in medical institutions. Furthermore, the access to good medical facilities is limited to certain communities in the country. For these reasons, the aim of this project is to design and implement a system, which could be used by the patient to monitor her own health without having to go to a hospital. This system integrates different sensors of a physiological monitor and visualizes the data acquired by these sensors in a mobile device. This device could allow the possibility to send the data through the Internet (enabling a remote monitoring) for future projects. The project is made up of a software (Android application and microcontroller firmware), as well as a hardware platform (eHealth systems and Bluno board). In order to ease the integration of the acquisition system with the mobile phone, a BLE connection is required. Preliminary testing of the developed system has shown that all the acquired data from the different sensors can be displayed simultaneously in the mobile phone (in a text and graphical manner), achieving a real-time local visualization platform.",
