Remote sensing electrocardiography

摘要

An activity of human body can be recorded by the method known as electrocardiography (ECG). The research carried out was to design a new prototype ECG device with wireless capability for the recording of ECG parameters. The idea of this novel project was to achieve wireless transmission of the ECG parameters at the clinician side to make it easy for the clinician and also it will be helpful for the clinician to monitor more than one patient at a time. The prototype comprised of analogue portion followed by a digital portion which was controlled by PIC16F877A. The programming was done through turbo while the software was built on Lab View/CVI 8.0 platform. The goal was achieved but there were a minor issue that it rendered unwanted results due to the patient movement. This problem can be further rectified by more proper shielding.
