Abstract: Abstract “Integrated Smart Wearable Device for Continuous Monitoring and Analysis of Maternal Health Indicators” The present invention relates to a smart wearable belt system designed for continuous, non-invasive monitoring of maternal physiological parameters during pregnancy. The system integrates multiple biosensors including an electrocardiogram sensor (AD8232), a force-sensitive resistor (FSR) for uterine contraction detection, a respiration sensor (INMP441), a pulse oximeter (MAX30105), and a temperature sensor (TMP117). These sensors collectively capture vital parameters such as heart activity, oxygen saturation, body temperature, respiration patterns, and uterine contraction behavior. An ESP32 microcontroller performs real-time data acquisition, signal processing, and wireless transmission to a cloud-based database using IoT communication protocols. The system enables real-time remote monitoring through a web-based or mobile dashboard with continuous data synchronization. The invention further incorporates an artificial intelligence-based decision support system configured to analyze both individual and combined physiological parameters to generate a dynamic maternal risk score, detect abnormal patterns, and provide actionable health recommendations. An automated alert mechanism is integrated to notify caregivers and healthcare professionals when predefined thresholds or risk levels are exceeded. The system is designed to be cost- effective, portable, and scalable, making it suitable for deployment in rural and resource-limited healthcare environments, including government healthcare systems. The invention facilitates early detection of maternal health risks, improves clinical decision-making, and supports continuous remote maternal care.
