This article describes the design and building processes of an IoT biomedical equipment for monitoring the blood pressure of patients at their place of residence. The equipment, easy to operate, can be used directly by the patient after receiving a brief instruction from healthcare personnel. In this way, the states of agitation and stress that usually affect this physiological variable are reduced. In the prototype building, six design stages are incorporated, ranging from the electronic circuitry required for analog signal acquisition and conditioning, to the inter-connectivity of devices and data transfer to the cloud proposed by the IoT model. Validation tests and experiments suggest that the prototype has the potential to provide a solution to monitoring blood pressure at home, reducing the displacement of patients to hospital centers.
