Project #8: A Systematic Review and Development of Healthy Home Monitoring Device for the Prevention of Rheumatic Heart Disease.

Back

Description:

People who live in unhealthy homes are more likely to have to make trade-offs between housing costs and decent food, heating, health services and other necessities of life. Those affected due to unhealthy homes, including children, are often hospitalised and treated but return home to the same conditions that caused the illness. The most vulnerable people, particularly children and older people, experience the worst effects of inadequate housing. In this project, we aim to do a systematic literature review on the topic, image analysis, 3D printing of products and devices for unhealthy home monitoring via a sensors network integrated with an IoT system, and cost-effective analysis to compare the existing and the new product.
