Abstract

There is a great need to constantly monitor the vital physiological parameters like ECG, heart rate, etc. for the elderly and chronic patients to take care of their health effectively and to provide treatment during emergency. The proposed designed system detects abnormal conditions in a patient and informs to the concerned medical personnel, without the intervention of even the patient himself. It processes the signals to detect any anomalies. If detected, it sends the data collected of the signal to the mobile phone of the concerned doctor in the form of messages by the use of GSM technology. At the doctor's end, the message received can be reconstructed back to the ECG waveform with the help of Java to Mobile Edition (J2ME) software. The proposed design is simple and compact and provides data with real time analysis to improvise patient care.
