Abstract In the era of science, technology plays the crucial role in healthcare for sensing devices, moreover in communication, storing, processing, and display devices. The advances in various streams such as sensing techniques, nanotechnologies, embedded systems, wireless communication networks, and miniaturization resulting to evolve intelligent systems to monitor and control various medical parameters in post-operational days. Hence, the IoT (Internet of Things) is emerged as a recent trend in healthcare communication systems. IoT serves as a catalyst for the healthcare and plays a major role in numerous healthcare applications. Wearable sensors recognize anomalous and unforeseen conditions by examining physiological parameters along with the symptoms and transfers the vital signs for medical evaluation. Hence, prompt provisional medication can be done immediately to avoid severe conditions. In the proposed system, a microcontroller is used as a gateway to communicate to the several sensors depending on parameters to be monitored such as pulse rate counter, temperature sensor, accelerometer, etc. The microcontroller acquires the sensor data, processes it, and transmits to the network through appropriate data transmission protocol, successively providing a real-time monitoring of the healthcare parameters for healthcare professionals. The doctor can access the data anytime by simply logging to the HTML (HyperText Markup Language) webpage or typing the corresponding unique IP (Internet protocol) address in Internet browser.

1 Introduction The Internet is the combinational result of a transformation of telecommunications and information made available by sustained, augmented development in the performance, moreover in cost of electronics devices. Considering, the Internet becomes very essential to each aspect of life like education, business, industries, finance, entertainment, social networking, e-commerce, shopping, etc. Thus, the recent new mega trend in an era of Internet is IoT [1]. Visualize a world where several objects or things can sense, analyze, communicate, and exchange data over a private Internet protocol (IP) or public networks. The interconnected objects acquire the information or data at specified intervals, analyze, and respond necessarily, providing a smart network for the purpose of analysi
