IoT-Based Elderly Health Monitoring System Using Firebase Cloud Computing.
Article in Health science reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background and Aims: The increasing elderly population presents significant challenges for healthcare systems, necessitating innovative solutions for continuous health monitoring. This study develops and validates an IoT-based elderly monitoring system designed to enhance the quality of life for elderly people. The system features a robust Android-based user interface integrated with the Firebase cloud platform, ensuring real-time data collection and analysis. In addition, a supervised machine learning technology is implemented to conduct prediction task of the observed user whether in "stable" or "not stable" condition based on real-time parameter. Methods: The system architecture adopts the IoT layer including physical layer, network layer, and application layer. Device validation is conducted by involving six participants to measure the real-time data of heart-rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature, then analysed by mean average percentage error (MAPE) to define error rate. A comparative experiment is conducted to define the optimal supervised machine learning model to be deployed into the system by analysing evaluation metrics. Meanwhile, the user satisfaction aspect evaluated by the terms of usability, comfort, security, and effectiveness. Results: IoT-based elderly health monitoring system has been constructed with a MAPE of 0.90% across the parameters: heart-rate (1.68%), oxygen saturation (0.57%), and body temperature (0.44%). In machine learning experiment indicates XGBoost model has the optimal performance based on the evaluation metrics of accuracy and F1 score which generates 0.973 and 0.970, respectively. In user satisfaction aspect based on usability, comfort, security, and effectiveness achieving a high rating of 86.55%. Conclusion: This system offers practical applications for both elderly users and caregivers, enabling real-time monitoring of health conditions. Future enhancements may include integration with artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning and deep learning to predict health conditions from data patterns, further improving the system's capabilities and effectiveness in elderly care.
