Examination of vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, and body temperature is the most basic essential function of the body in determining the health status of the patient. In general, examining vital signs performed by a doctor or nurse uses an electrocardiogram, thermometer, and sphygmomanometer. However, this tool has a weakness in terms of time efficiency and accuracy of reading vital sign data. The process of taking vital sign data for a long time, the limited number of medical personnel in handling patients, and increasing administrative costs certainly become a concern for management in improving health services. To overcome this problem, we proposed a design that can monitor the health condition of patients' vital signs efficiently and in real time. The system used in this study consisted of an HRM-2511E type heartbeat sensor in pulse units per minute (bpm), DS18b20 body type temperature sensor in degrees Celsius (0C), and MPX5700AP sensor in mmHg units. This research is fundamental and is useful in helping medical personnel in monitoring patients' vital sign health conditions. The results of the proposed design showed that the heart rate, temperature, and blood pressure devices worked well with respective accuracy of 97.64%, 99.51%, and 97.53%.
