A ZigBee-based telecardiology system was designed to enable remote, real-time ECG monitoring and diagnosis over the Internet.
Patients with heart disease suffer much to have diagnostic ECG sessions especially in rural areas and areas with high population. This is mainly due to the remoteness of distance between patients and the medical units, as well as traffic congestion. Doctors also need a fast and reliable way to be able to check on their patients and provide a diagnosis irrespective of where they are. In this paper we describe the design and implementation of a telecardiology system using ZigBee. Our proposed system will provide doctors with the ability to monitor, and diagnose their patients remotely over the Internet. The system is capable of receiving a serial stream of data and extracting relevant packets from the measurements of the patient's vital signs. The implemented software allows patients to easily connect with their doctors and to send their data via Internet. The ECG signal is monitored in a real-time mode with the ability of keeping records through SCP-ECG (Standard Communication Protocol) standard.
Ernest et al. (Tue,) conducted a other in Heart disease. ZigBee-based telecardiology system was evaluated on System design and implementation for remote ECG monitoring. A ZigBee-based telecardiology system was designed and implemented to allow doctors to remotely monitor and diagnose patients' ECG signals in real-time over the Internet.
