IoT-Assisted Electrocardiogram (ECG) Monitoring System for Health-Care Application

Abstract

The scope of care and health services that can be provided to patients at home is expanding because of sophisticated advancements in currently accessible information technologies. This paper proposes a MATLAB GUI developed for users to analyze the recorded ECG signal. The program intends to improve cardiovascular disease (CVD) patients’ access to medical care by facilitating better patient monitoring and prompt intervention. This implementation uses a patient path estimator, patient table, and alert management schemes within the hospital to facilitate localization and timely intervention for the treatment of CVD patients, since real-time monitoring of patients from different locations remains a critical challenge for IoT-based healthcare systems.
