Problem Statement
Fatigue, stress, illness, or substance abuse can hinder a doctor's ability to perform
surgeries safely, compromising patient safety and infection control in hospitals.
Effective solutions are needed to support doctors' well-being, prevent mistakes, and
improve patient outcomes.
Our technology used:
• 1. Camera V2 module - utilizes face detection and mask recognition techniques to analyze video frames and detect
whether a doctor is wearing a mask or not.

• 2. Heart Oxygen Sensor (MAX30100) - measures the doctor's heart rate and oxygen saturation levels.

• 3. Body Temperature Sensor (MIX90614) - captures the doctor's body temperature with a high degree of accuracy.

• 4. Signal filtering and processing techniques - used to process sensor readings from the Heart Oxygen and Body
Temperature Sensors to ensure reliable and accurate measurements.

• 5. Diverse dataset - used to fine-tune the mask detection algorithm and minimize false positives and false negatives.

 Introduction
• The well-being of medical professionals directly impacts their ability to provide
optimal care to patients.
• Traditional methods of assessing doctors' health may not provide real-time
insights or detect potential issues promptly.
• The proposed Doctor's Health and Safety Monitoring System leverages
Raspberry Pi and sensors like the Camera V2, Heart Oxygen Sensor, and Body
Temperature Sensor to continuously monitor doctors' vital signs, mask usage, and
body temperature in real-time.
• The system aims to provide a reliable mechanism to evaluate a doctor's eligibility
to enter the operation room and identify any anomalies that may compromise
patient safety.
• By incorporating mask detection and continuous monitoring, the system
enhances patient safety and offers several advantages over traditional methods
of monitoring doctors' health.

Literature Survey

[1],[2] G Abdullah S. AL-Malaise AL-Ghamdi, Sultanah M. Alshammari explore the use of IoT and
smart technology to combat the spread of COVID-19. It discusses the limitations of using
infrared thermometers for mass screening and the potential benefits of using smart masks with
sensors. Also M. Lazaro, A. Lazaro proposed a novel approach of using smart masks to automate
screening and enhance efficiency by measuring temperature and breathing rate of wearers. The
use of face mask sensors for detecting mask type and fit has some drawbacks. The sensors may
have limited accuracy and can malfunction in certain environmental conditions or lighting.
Moreover, the adoption of these sensors may face challenges due to personal preferences or
privacy concerns of individuals. Therefore,
In our project we focused to get
the best accuracy of the sensors by recalibrating the sensors every
time the project operates.

Literature Survey
[3],[4] Islam, M. M., Rahaman released a paper in Development of Smart Healthcare Monitoring
System in IoT Environment. This is a famous research paper that has been posted in the national
health library of medicine this research paper dealt with the problem perfectly as there are five
sensors used which are heartbeat sensor, body temperature sensor, room temperature sensor,
carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide sensor . The idea of this system is to ensure that all of the read
variables are in its normal condition, and this is great but, in our project, we considered
another dimension which is the safety precautions so, we added a sensor (like the face
id check) that checks if the doctor is wearing a face mask or not . Abdulmalek S, Nasir A,
Jabbar WA also released a paper about IoT-Based Healthcare-Monitoring System towards Improving
Quality of Life This research paper is mainly discussing an IOT based project that helps the doctors to
deal with patients semi remotely as there is a software that analyses the read results by the sensors
of the patients and gives a report of the case to the doctor, many specified sensors are used in this
project. This project consists of a strong base as it saves time of both doctors and
patients and also allows anyone to get a fast checkup on himself but the problem with
this paper is there isn’t any accuracy details of any of the used devices so applying this
project is considered a kind of risk so according to this point we made sure that our
research paper contains all the names of the used devises in addition to the accuracy
percentage of each device

Literature Survey
[5],[6],[7] Ademola Philip Abidoye have reached Using Wearable Sensors for Remote Healthcare
Monitoring System Sensor nodes can be strategically placed on the human body create a cluster that is
called wireless body area network (WBAN) that can be used to collect patient’s vital signs . But in our
project, we will monitor all of the health status without using any attached sensors to the
human body. Yara Ahmed, Racha Ramadan released a paper in Equity of health-care financing: a
progressivity analysis for Egypt. The Egyptian health-care system is still characterized by problems of
quality, efficiency and equity (WHO, 2014). This signals the need for immediate pursuit of health-care
financing reform because many constraints to the proper functioning of Egypt’s health-care system are
finance-related. and this what our project aims to do which is to increase the health-care
quality in Egypt. Garba Iliyasu, Farouq Muhammad also released a paper about Knowledge and
practices of infection control among healthcare workers the poor knowledge on the risk of transmission
of bloodborne pathogens (HIV, HBV, HCV) suggest most of the respondents underestimate the risk of
transmission and this may put HCW at risk of being infected with these pathogens following exposure.
This may explain the poor compliance with the use of simple personal protective equipment such as
gowns, caps and mask and goggles identified in this study, as most of the respondent would have
underestimated the risk associated with invasive procedures. due to the high rate of infection in
this project we aim to make sure that the doctors follow all safety ore cation before seeing
the patient.

Literature Survey
[8],[9]Z. Al Maskari, A. Al Blushi have found that Characteristics of healthcare workers infected
with COVID-19 This study describes the characteristics of HCWs who tested positive for COVID-
19 at Royal Hospital, Muscat, Oman, which is the main hospital providing care for patients with
moderate to severe COVID-19, Healthcare workers (HCWs) are at risk of acquiring COVID-19 in
the workplace. Several reports have described the reasons leading to COVID-19 acquisition by
HCWs within healthcare settings. and that is why we finds it important to put mask
detection in the project to avoid this harm. Sandeep Sharma, Brant B. Hafen have
reached that Due to the noninvasive nature and relative importance of pulse oximetry
readings, there are very few situations that do not indicate its use. Pulse oximetry can provide
a rapid tool to assess oxygenation accurately. It is particularly useful in emergencies for this
reason. Cyanosis may not develop until oxygen saturation reaches about 67%. As such, pulse
oximetry is extremely useful because the signs and symptoms of hypoxemia may not be visible
on physical examination. And that’s why we added this sensor in order to avoid any
breathing problem.
