Real time monitoring of vital signs using wireless technique

Abstract

Recent wireless technology gives new possibilities for monitoring vital parameters like electrocardiogram (ECG), Blood Pressure (BP), Temperature, Respiration rate with portable system and still be under continuously monitoring and thereby to better quality of patient health care. This paper describes the design of a wireless ECG portable systems used for remote monitoring of cardiac activity is one of the most important fields in telemedicine and telecare. ECG signals and Heart beats of all patients are recorded in a single computer then processed with a microcontroller. After processing, all data are sent to a communication interface that can send this information to a personal computer. This work covers the wireless telemedicine applications with the use of zigbee technology. This work is also included to implement various filters using LabVIEW software.
