A Smart Hospital Patient Monitoring System for Cameroon- Case Study: Douala
Overview:
Smart Hospital Patient Monitoring System, a production-grade, cloud-ready software platform built for Douala, Cameroon. The system addresses the critical challenge of real-time patient vital signs monitoring in busy hospital wards by combining Internet of Things (IoT) sensor integration, artificial intelligence (AI) anomaly detection, instant clinical alerting, and a multi-role web dashboard into a single cohesive platform.
The system was built using Python Flask as the API gateway, Google Cloud Firestore as the database, a standalone machine learning microservice employing Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) and Logistic Regression algorithms for anomaly detection, and a responsive browser-based dashboard served as a single-page application. The full infrastructure is containerised with Docker, orchestrated with Kubernetes, and deployed through an automated GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline targeting both Railway and Kubernetes-based cloud environments.
