Design And Research Of Remote ECG Display System Based On Smart Phone

In the 21st century, human vary from the industrial age to the information age, the standard of living has improved steadily, the pace of work are becoming increasingly faster, but the incidence of cardiovascular diseases is increasing too. Heart disease has become a serious threat to human health and life. It has the characteristics of hidden, sudden, and high risk of congenital, especially has great dangers to elderly patients. According to the World Health Organization's estimation, China and other developing countries will meet the peak incidence of heart disease around 2020. In order to efficiently prevent and treat the heart disease, a serious of measures were born. The abnormal frequency and complexity form of the ECG are the independent predictor instructions of sudden death or acute cardiac events. Real-time monitoring ECG, which can detect arrhythmia and myocardial ischemia and other diseases easier than routine electrocardiogram, is an important basis for clinical analysising, diagnosising and judging. It is also an important basis for cardiovascular disease. The timely detection of abnormal ECG has great significance for patients such as gaining time for early treatment and life-saving opportunities.This paper proposed a remote ECG real-time display system which based on smart phone. It mainly used in human testing and Holter ECG analysis for clinical examination of cardiovascular disease, normal heart function custody and health care, diagnosis or treatment which can be widely used in hospitals, pre-hospital first aid, home care, health care and many other fields, the system will play an important role in the heart disease prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. The system is used in human real-time ECG detection and Holter ECG analysis. It mainly consists of three parts: the BIOPAC's MP150-type 16-channel recording physiological signal analysis system, GPRS mobile phone networks and medical care. Physiological signal analysis system using for the recording of ECG data acquisition and preprocessing, and make a preliminary judgement. When comes to abnormal ECG, the analysis system transmits abnormal signal data automatically to a doctor via GPRS mobile communications network. The doctor uses a smart phone whose display platform is using Java technology--- "Java 2 Platform Micro Edition (J2ME)" to construct ECG, to check the abnormal electrocardiogram on this platform ECG display program, and then to make a preliminary diagnosis and guidance according to the patient's condition .The results show that the long-distance ECG display system which based on smart phones, can show the abnormal ECG in time and efficiently. Achievement of the system will provide strong technical support and services for the change of the business model for the hospital, the doctor and the patient care means to enhance ease of treatment and so. It releases the patient and the attending doctor from the regional restriction, and gives assistance to the remote diagnosis and treatment and realizes remote monitoring.
