Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) System

A full-stack Remote Patient Monitoring system developed during a hackathon.
The platform securely collects, manages, and visualizes patient vitals, supports authenticated access, and exposes ML-based health analysis APIs.

---

🌟 Key Features

• JWT-based authentication and authorization – Secure user sessions and protected routes
• Patient and device management – Comprehensive CRUD operations for patients and IoT devices
• Vitals ingestion and tracking – Real-time collection and storage of patient health data
• ML-based health insights – Intelligent analysis and predictions based on vital signs
• Secure, rate-limited backend APIs – Protection against abuse and unauthorized access
• Modern React dashboard – Clean, responsive UI for monitoring and management
• Postman collection for API testing – Pre-configured requests for quick testing

---

🛠️ Tech Stack

Frontend

• React (Vite) – Fast, modern build tool and development server
• Context API – State management across components
• Component-based architecture – Modular and reusable UI components

Backend

• Node.js – JavaScript runtime for server-side logic
• Express.js – Web framework for building RESTful APIs
• MongoDB (Mongoose) – NoSQL database with ODM for data modeling
• JWT Authentication – Token-based secure authentication
• Custom middleware – Authentication, rate limiting, and error handling

Tooling

• Git & GitHub – Version control and collaboration
• Postman – API development and testing
• Environment-based configuration – Secure management of sensitive data

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v16 or higher)
• MongoDB (local or cloud instance)
• npm or yarn package manager

---

🔧 Backend Setup

cd backend
npm install
cp .env.example .env
npm run dev

---

Environment Variables

PORT=5000
MONGO_URI=your_mongodb_uri
JWT_SECRET=your_jwt_secret
NODE_ENV=development

---

🎨 Frontend Setup

cd frontend/remote-vitals
npm install
npm run dev

---

The frontend runs on:

http://localhost:5173

---

Usage

• Access the dashboard via the frontend URL
• Test API endpoints using the Postman collection in postman/
• Add new patients, devices, and vitals through the UI
• ML endpoints provide analysis and insights for patient vitals

---

Contribution

This project was created as a hackathon submission. Future improvements may include:

• More advanced ML models for patient risk analysis
• Notifications for critical vitals
• Multi-user roles and permissions
