Resumen

COVID19 proved a devastating threat to human society in terms of health, economy, and lifestyle. It quickly spread around the world and caused many governments to close their borders and declare a general quarantine at the national level sending everyone home, with this they changed the lifestyle of many people because they lost the mobility of moving from one place to another. This has led to people somehow losing physical activity and the fear of moving on public roads. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), physical inactivity is the fourth risk factor for global mortality since it generates 3.2 million deaths annually, this is worrying since people do not perform any physical activity. In view of this problem, in this article a blood pressure measurement system was made visualized through a mobile application, in such a way that it can help to observe if they have a stable or high blood pressure, with this, it will be possible to diagnose if a person can present hypertension and prevent them from suffering from any cardiovascular disease. Through the design of the blood pressure measurement system, it was possible to observe that the operation was done correctly, the sensor makes the corresponding measurements and classifies it according to the measurement made, all this is visualized through a mobile application, showing if the person presents a normal or elevated pressure.
