Ubiquitous Real Time ECG Monitoring System Using Android Smartphone

Abstract — In this paper we propose design and implementation of an ubiquitous energy efficient real time ECG monitoring system using android Smartphone. It is motivated by the increasing awareness of Cardiac arrhythmias and coronary heart disease due to population ageing and stressful modern life. If proper medical care can be given to the patients at the right time their lives can be saved, for that we need is a system that continuously monitors ones ECG signal, so this system is develop. This system can be used by patient for self-diagnosis, and remote-diagnosis for chronic heart disease patients before sudden outbreaks. This system will continuously monitor the ECG signal from the body and if any deviation is found will generate an alert. This system is mainly useful for patient living alone and has disability. The System will measure the ECG (EKG) signal using three lead electrocardiography and transmit these signals to Smartphone via Bluetooth for processing and generating proper alert
