  abstract = {In hospitals, the patients in the ICU need a constant monitoring of their body temperature, SPO2 (Pulse Oximeter Oxygen Saturation) and pulse rate. This paper provides a working model which incorporates sensors to measure important parameters which were mentioned above namely the body temperature, respiratory temperature and pulse rate and transmits the collected data from these sensors to the user through GSM. Thus it reduces the doctor’s work load as the collected data can easily conveyed to the doctor using wireless communication of GSM and also gives more accurate and high precision results. This application has a desired impact on industrial, defense and hospital automation. The hardware of the proposed model is built on a printed circuit board, constituting of microcontroller PIC16F877. The program required to implement the proposed model has written in hi-tech C using MPLAB.},
