Abstract

Studying and applying computer science in supporting cardiovascular disease diagnostic have had many achievements in the world. In Vietnam, related studies, especially about Electrocardiogram- ECG (or EKG) are limited to theory researches and disconnected products, and have no complete solution to apply in healthcare centers, whereas foreign solutions are very expensive. In addition, having no up to date facilities, rural hospitals and healthcare centers in Vietnam cannot meet all the needs of patients and they have to move to big cities for treatment, while the diagnosis can be performed remotely with the advances in technology. Inspired from the actual needs and the growth of technology, we have proposed a general solution to manufacture ECG devices that has compact size, and their accuracy is equivalent with imported ones. We also develop software integrated with ECG devices that support users (patients and doctors) quickly and conveniently with smart-phone. We hope that our solution will bring more efficiency to healthcare centers in Vietnam, especially the doctor in large cities can support remote treatment for patients in rural hospitals. Our main modules are developed and tested separately with 77.50% of accuracy for automatic diagnostic module.
