TLDR
The construction and implementation methods of wearable and wireless EKG device for on-line post surgery heart monitoring system is described, which uses lightweight and inexpensive hardware to facilitate the development of distributed and real-time biomedical monitoring equipment.Abstract:
This paper describes the construction and implementation methods of wearable and wireless EKG device for on-line post surgery heart monitoring system. The device is a proven, accessible circuit design that uses lightweight and inexpensive hardware to facilitate the development of distributed and real-time biomedical monitoring equipment. Moreover, EKG data from the designed device is compressed by the proposed image-like model with Lossless JPEG. The results of our low cost design device show that the presented algorithm has compression ratio about 2.15:1.read more
