Description
Summary:Heart disease is a leading cause of death at this era of globalization. The paper describes a heart disease detection using mobile phone and wireless sensor networks. The emergence of wearable sensor and wireless mobile technologies enable to detect and monitor the changes in health parameters irrespective of places and time. In addition, a prototype is developed that capable of wirelessly monitoring and real-time diagnosis of patient to solve the critical issue that the patients‟ activities is restricted with the dangling wire and weight of the electrocardiogram machine. It will be much more convenience for the patient to do a self-test diagnosis by using a wireless heart monitoring device. This prototype aims to use low cost implementation and provides reliable heartbeat monitoring result. This kind of real-time assistive medical diagnosis system consists of pulse sensor.
