abstract={This paper deals with health functions-monitoring system for observing patient¡äs physical characteristics. These physical characteristics of patients are followed by sensors and the output information is broadcasted via Zigbee to PC for further processing. The tested e-health system is based on Arduino e-health kitwith Zigbee for transmitting information and a PC with Arduino and Zigbee for receiving data. Bluetooth is a well-known conventional wireless data transfer protocol, but it¡äs not much encouraged for long duration applications because of power consumption limitations, so Zigbee offers a better solution for such cases. Basic tasks of the system are to measure main health functions as heart rate, body temperature and body position. The tested system enables quick access to parameters of monitored biosignals, therefore identification of health risks and intervention can be provided in real time [1].},
