        abstract = {Healthcare technology has advanced with the development of an IoT-based real-time monitoring system for post-operative heart disease patients. This system integrates advanced sensor technologies with cloud-connected platforms to continuously track vital signs, enabling more effective post- operative care. The system employs the HW-827 Heart Rate Sensor and DS18B20 Temperature Sensor, integrated with an ESP32 for wireless connectivity, to collect real-time data. Data was collected from 20 participants in each of the following categories: healthy individuals, pre-operative heart disease patients, and post-operative heart disease patients. The results revealed distinct physiological variations across the groups. Healthy individuals maintained stable temperatures (mean 36.3°C), while post-operative patients exhibited slightly elevated temperatures (mean 36.6°C). Heart rate analysis indicated higher rates in pre- operative (mean 87.8 bpm) and post-operative patients (mean 82.0 bpm) compared to healthy individuals (mean 72.4 bpm). ECG analysis showed elevated readings in pre-operative patients (mean 0.16 mV) compared to healthy individuals (mean 0.10 mV) and post-operative patients (mean 0.12 mV). Statistical analyses, including ANOVA tests, confirmed significant differences among the groups in terms of temperature(F(2,12)=4.57,p<0.05),heartrate(F(2,12)= 5.91,p <0.01), and ECG readings(F(2,12)= 3.24, p < 0.05). This study demonstrates the potential of IoT technologies in enhancing post-operative care through continuous monitoring and data-driven insights. It emphasizes the role of real-time patient data in improving personalized healthcare management.},
