Abstract
The healthcare landscape is rapidly evolving with the integration of advanced technologies to enhance patient care, monitoring, and overall medical practices. In this era of innovation, Light-Fidelity (Li-Fi) has emerged as a promising solution with the potential to revolutionize patient monitoring systems. This research aims to address current limitations in Li-Fi-based patient monitoring systems, such as data security concerns and the inability to provide continuous monitoring without on-site medical personnel. It is driven by the urgent need to tackle critical healthcare challenges arising from a significant shortage of medical personnel, particularly in certain regions and countries. The objective is to develop a Li-Fi-based patient monitoring system that can remotely and continuously monitor patient vital signs and medical data. The methodology involves a comprehensive approach that integrates advanced technology, data collection, data processing, and web application development. Results indicate that the developed system prioritizes performance and security, with evaluations based on latency, security vulnerabilities, and data throughput. This research advances Li-Fi's potential in healthcare, paving the way for innovative applications that can enhance patient care, improve healthcare outcomes, and potentially transform the entire healthcare industry.
