A proposed low-power wearable ECG remote monitoring system integrated into an IoT infrastructure offers record-low energy consumption and low marginal cost per added sensor.
The proposed wearable ECG monitoring system demonstrates high signal quality and low power consumption, enabling long-term remote monitoring of multiple patients within a smart home IoT infrastructure.
Many devices and solutions for remote electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring have been proposed in the literature. These solutions typically have a large marginal cost per added sensor and are not seamlessly integrated with other smart home solutions. Here, we propose an ECG remote monitoring system that is dedicated to non-technical users in need of long-term health monitoring in residential environments and is integrated in a broader Internet-of-Things (IoT) infrastructure. Our prototype consists of a complete vertical solution with a series of advantages with respect to the state of the art, considering both the prototypes with integrated front end and prototypes realized with off-the-shelf components: 1) ECG prototype sensors with record-low energy per effective number of quantized levels; 2) an architecture providing low marginal cost per added sensor/user; and 3) the possibility of seamless integration with other smart home systems through a single IoT infrastructure.
Spano et al. (Mon,) conducted a other in Remote ECG monitoring. Low-power wearable ECG monitoring system vs. State of the art prototypes was evaluated.
