ABSTRACT:

Nowadays, the electrocardiograph (ECG) is certainly the most effective tool to identity anomalies in the cardiacactivity. In this paper, we propose a remote medical monitoring system for ECG data. The system is composed oftwo parts, which are portable remote medical monitoring unit and the monitoring center. The portable remotemedical monitoring unit consists of Advanced RISC Machines (ARM) with the embedded operating system, a custom ECG board, and a GPRS module capable of transmitting information to processing centers. The monitoringcenter is composed of the monitoring station and the information processing system which realizes information management, real-time analysis, wireless transmission, a warning mechanism for emergency and ECG diagnosis. The aim of this project is to provide an ECG medical monitoring for the user (patient or potential patient) at any time and any place, if there is any abnormal change of ECG data.
