Does a real-time remote health monitoring system using wearable sensors and smartphones accurately measure vital signs and transmit timely alarms compared to conventional devices in cardiac patients?
p-value: p=0.0003
A smartphone-based wearable sensor system can accurately monitor cardiac vital signs and transmit real-time clinical alarms within acceptable medical timeframes.
Kakria et al. (2015) studied Cardiac diseases (n=40). Real-time remote health monitoring system vs. Conventional measuring devices was evaluated on Accuracy of wearable sensors compared to conventional devices (p=0.0003). The developed real-time health monitoring system using wearable sensors and smartphones successfully transmitted cardiac emergency alarms within 30 seconds via Wi-Fi and 56 seconds via 3G.
