Mobile service and wearable devices have become a new hotspot in recent year. People also pay more attention to the problem of e-health. Cardiovascular disease is a kind of serious disease that jeopardizes the health and life of human beings which has been widespread concern by academic and practice researchers. But the automated monitoring and prevention of heart disease, cardiovascular disease and...
In this paper we consider a portable cardioanalyzer for assessment of heart conditions without limiting patient movement including ECG recorder with external electrodes, wireless transmitter for work in networks of the third and fourth generation and a computing module. As the computing module we use a MCU with developed software. The characteristics of the closest analogs are considered. Distinctive...
Paper describes some aspects of data processing in mobile heart monitoring systems. Authors highlight an important cardiological and social problem of arrhythmic pathologies of the heart and the possibilities of new medical equipment to detect the arrythmia. The architecture and the features of up-to-date monitoring systems are investigated. The specificity of long term ECG records is examined via...
One of the best ways to obtain health information is from an electrocardiogram (ECG). Through an ECG, characteristics such as patients’ heartbeats, heart conditions, and heart disease can be analyzed. Unfortunately, most available healthcare devices do not provide clinical data such as information regarding patients’ heart activities. Many researchers have tried to solve this problem by inventing...
For Good Mental health and strength of any human life the basic activity regularly to be practiced is a Physical Exercise. The chronic diseases such as Heart attack, Arthritis, Cancer and Diabetes can be easily prevented with regular exercise which also helps to maintain the weight and reduces cholesterol. The researchers have been attracted with this area and its situations for real time monitoring...
The ability to monitor arterial blood pressure continuously with unobtrusive body worn sensors may provide a unique and potentially valuable assessment of a patient's cardiovascular health. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) offers an attractive method to continuously monitoring blood pressure. However, PWV technologies based on timing measurements between the ECG and a distal PPG suffer from inaccuracies...
This paper describes a new solution for mobile heart monitoring. This approach is based on the experience of ECG processing algorithms development for diagnostic purposes. The described approach allows developing a new mobile heart monitoring system consisting of ECG recording device, mobile computer (smartphone or tablet) and server (medical database). It is based on specially developed software...
Heart failure is a common chronic condition requiring frequent attention and ongoing provision of healthcare services. In this context we present a personalized mobile-based home monitoring system aiming to support heart failure patients in daily self-monitoring of their condition. An Internet-linked tablet computer and various portable and wearable sensing devices are employed in order to monitor...
In the US, approximately 5.8 million people suffer from Congestive Heart Failure (CHF). It is the most frequent cause for hospital readmissions such that 21.2% of Medicare patients diagnosed with CHF were readmitted to hospital within 30 days of discharge. Tele-monitoring daily self-management regimens may reduce hospital readmission. My Heart is a telehealth system, which we have designed for CHF...
MyHeart is a telehealth system designed to bridge the current gap in the Congestive Heart Failure care continuum that occurs when the patient transitions from the hospital to the home environment. The system uses wireless health devices and a mobile application on the patient's end, a rule-based expert system, and a dashboard on the clinician's end to facilitate the exchange of information pertaining...
This research shows the development and implementation of a profiling and exchange system in mobile devices applied to a SOA architecture in a Telehealth center in Colombia. The service is directly targeted at profiling the user with a continuous monitoring of variables to generate health monitoring alarms: amount of kilocalories expend and consumed, heart activity, diets, education, among others...
Remote monitoring of in-home activity and body posture provides useful physiological parameters for understanding patient status and for making clinical judgment in patients living with heart failure. The Corventis PiiX is a mobile chest-adherent device that provides continuously recorded accelerometer data from patients in an in-home setting. In particular, a 3-axis accelerometer enables quantification...
Healthy eating and regular physical activity plays a substantial role in preventing diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer, diabetes and stroke etc. As mobile devices have become an integral part of our lives, it can alter the way we look after our health. Seeing the increase in adoption of mobile in our daily lives, we have used mobile as a platform for a healthcare, so that people...
This paper presents a novel device for cardiac output monitoring based on electromagnetic coupling between the sensor and the thoracic tissue. The device works in a noncontact way and is integrated into a shirt. Since the device is wearable, mobile, wireless, and easily operated, it would allow the incorporation of cardiac output measurements into home monitoring systems.
This paper presents a remote heart sound monitoring system which is based on LZSS lossless compression algorithm. This system consists of the client, mobile phone and the remote monitoring center. Firstly, the heart sounds collected by client are filtered and compressed in real-time, then the processed data is transmitted into the mobile phone via Bluetooth. Finally, by network, the processed data...
The paper is addressing compact and mobile solutions for bio-medical electronics, and is proposing a convenient phono-cardiographic monitoring implementation with remote diagnosis capabilities.
Internet of Things (IoT) built on the existing (mobile) Internet has emerged as a solution to effectively interact with environment around us. In this paper, we investigate the application of IoT in the area of pervasive medicine. We propose a practical network architecture for local medicine and health system based on GSM/3G/Internet infrastructure and Wireless Body Area Sensor Network (WBASN), called...
This paper describes a highly mobile collaborative patient-centric, self-monitoring, symptom recognition and self intervention system along with a complementary clinical nursing tool to aid in collaborative patient/clinician chronic cardiac disease management. Our system is composed of a mobile smart phone and wearable sensor suite linked through blue tooth and cell phone technology to a backend data...
The personal mobile network is offered for monitoring of power indexes of organism of sportsmen - rowers and estimation them the functional state during a training process.
To date, cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the first leading cause of global death. The Electrocardiogram (ECG) is the most widely adopted clinical tool that measures and records the electrical activity of the heart from the body surface. The mainstream resting ECG machines for CVD diagnosis and supervision can be ineffective in detecting abnormal transient heart activities, which may not occur during...
