The physiological variation of heart rate, controlled by autonomic nervous system, is called Heart Rate Variability (HRV). Measuring HRV reveals a wide range of useful information about humans' body and health status, including prognostic issues.
This paper describes the research for the design and implementation of a flexible, scalable and cost-effective medical system based on wireless sensors for remote monitoring of some vital physiological parameters. The proposed medical system has been designed to be integrated into a complex electronic system, based on assistive technologies, for assisting in the communication between the patients...
Monitoring of the evolution of the pregnancy from early stages presents high interest due to the possibility of identifying high risk situations that can be further managed by health care professionals. One of the more recent and promising methods of monitoring fetal and maternal physiological wellbeing is the electrohysterogram (EHG) which is a non-invasive technique of acquiring uterine electrical...
Today, health information technology is the area of IT involving the design and development of telemedicine solutions, providing to patients medical services that enhance their quality of life. Technological advances in integrated circuits and wireless communications have led to the design and fabrication of low-cost, low-power, miniature, and intelligent physiological data acquisition devices. The...
The paper describes a software application running on Android mobile devices, used to help the neuromotor disabled patients to communicate with the clinicians or caretakers. The proposed application also include a telemonitoring (remote monitoring) component used to collect and process few physiological parameters of the patient. The application is part of a more complex communication and monitoring...
The aim of this study is the identification of the dynamic relationship between intrapartum fetal heart rate (FHR) variability and uterine pressure (UP) for normal and hypoxic fetuses. A new method for automatic analysis and identification of uterine contractions is developed and tested on 552 recordings. Using contractions, the fetal heart rate variations are established: accelerations and decelerations...
In this paper we present the realization of a remote blood pressure and heart rate monitoring system, based on wireless devices, capable to measure and transmit patient's arterial blood pressure and heart rate. The use of the proposed system is suitable for continuous long-time patient monitoring, as a part of a diagnostic procedure. The patient can achieve medical assistance of a chronic condition,...
