Abstract

This Methodology proposes a novel approach for the detection and prevention of varicose veins utilizing an ESP8266 microcontroller as the central processing unit. Varicose veins are a prevalent vascular condition whose early detection is crucial for preventing severe health complications. The system employs DS18B20 temperature sensors to monitor body temperature changes and force sensors to detect bulging or pressure indicative of varicose veins. Continuous monitoring of temperature and force readings enables the system to initiate preventive measures upon detecting significant increases in temperature and pressure associated with varicose veins. Preventive measures include activating a vibration mechanism to stimulate blood flow and heating a water bag to apply hydrotherapy, effectively preventing the exacerbation of varicose veins. To facilitate seamless communication and data transfer between upper and lower body areas, wireless sensor network (WSN) technology is integrated, enabling efficient differentiation of temperature patterns. The proposed system leverages ESP8266 microcontroller technology, temperature sensors, force sensors, and WSN technology to enable real-time monitoring and preventive interventions for varicose veins. This innovative approach holds promise for enhancing the effectiveness of varicose vein detection and prevention, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
