Design of Real Time Heart Rate Monitoring System With ARDUINO UNO R3 Based on Android Application

The heart is an important organ for humans. Heart disease has claimed many lives. It happened because not everyone can do regular heart checks. High cost and time wasted could be the reason. Even a lot of heart disease is detected when a disease was so severe that treatment be late. Though the heart is the organ that affects other organs, in other words, the good performance of the heart as the source of much-needed work of other organs. One of the things that can be done is to check regularly to determine the condition of the heart through a number of heartbeats per minute. By knowing the condition of the heart then anyone can change the pattern of life and maintain food intake better, so that the heart will change to a more healthy condition. Therefore the heart rate monitoring system application to be made. Only by writing gender and age, everyone can use it and do not have to wait for a medical expert. The application can determine the condition of the heart in good condition, weak or bad through the calculation of the number of heartbeats using easy way, so that they can consult with medical experts and of course heart health can be maintained without taking expensive and complicated way, simply by changing lifestyle and exercise regularly. This application runs on Android based smartphones that connected to ARDUINO UNO R3 modul to detect heart rate. Keywords-heart rate; heart condition; android; arduin

Android Application to Detect and Alert Tachycardia and Bradycardia using Pulse Rate Sensor

Heart rate monitoring is most vital in preventing disorders related to heart. Failure to detect heart disorder in early stage may lead to death. The lacking of devices to immediately detect the abnormalities in heart and alert the patients emergency contact lead to this problem. In this report the author propose a system to detect two heart disorders called Tachycardia and Bradycardia which are caused by abnormalities in heart rate. The proposed system will consist of a pulse sensor which will be connected to a smartphone via Bluetooth. The signal information which is processed by the microcontroller will be sent to the mobile phone. An app created will send an alert to the emergency contacts of the patients when Tachycardia or Bradycardia condition has been detected by the sensor. This will increase the possibilities of giving immediate treatment to the patient, and hope to reduce the death rate caused by heart disorder

Design and Implementation of a Smart, Interactive and Portable System for Monitoring of Human Vital Signs

Smart systems are characterized by their efficiency, high accuracy, and cost reduction. One of the important fields in which the smart system is used is health care, especially monitoring of human vital signs. In general, the conventional patient monitor is expensive, cannot be used for remote monitoring, and non-interactive. In many situations, it requires remote and portable monitoring for patients, such as in case of the area is outside the medical services, infected diseases (e.g., COVID-19, 20), and difficulties of a patient transferred. This paper proposes a smart, interactive, and portable monitor for vital human signs based on the internet of things (IoT). The proposed monitor is cheap and easy to use either directly by doctors and nurses or remotely by any person. The proposed system is designed using ESP32-microcontroller and vital-sign sensors. It measures three important vital signs, including heart rate, body temperature, and Electrocardiography (ECG), as well as the environment temperature of the patient. The measured signs can be monitored from anywhere in the world through a smartphone application in real-time. Furthermore, the doctor can send instructions and descriptions to the patients in real-time using the same phone application that is designed in this work.Smart systems are characterized by their efficiency, high accuracy, and cost reduction.

The Design of Heart Rate Detector and Body Temperature Measurement Device Using ATMega16

This research will discuss health services in the role of diagnostics and life support. The system designed is a system that is able to provide information on the user's health condition, in this case, is a measure of heart rate and body temperature. In taking heart rate data using a heart rate sensor (fingertip sensor). This system works taking data from the blood flow on the index finger for the 60s, the data will be displayed through the LCD. For body temperature parameters the data collection uses the LM35 temperature sensor. Changes in sensor heat will be converted into electricity, which is translated into digital form through a 10-bit ADC that is processed by the ATMega 16 microcontroller and displayed to the LCD. The results of an ideal measurement show the error of each parameter heart rate and body temperature min 1.702% and 0.55

On the Capability of Smartphones to Perform as Communication Gateways in Medical Wireless Personal Area Networks

This paper evaluates and characterizes the technical performance of medical wireless personal area networks (WPANs) that are based on smartphones. For this purpose, a prototype of a health telemonitoring system is presented. The prototype incorporates a commercial Android smartphone, which acts as a relay point, or “gateway”, between a set of wireless medical sensors and a data server. Additionally, the paper investigates if the conventional capabilities of current commercial smartphones can be affected by their use as gateways or “Holters” in health monitoring applications. Specifically, the profiling has focused on the CPU and power consumption of the mobile devices. These metrics have been measured under several test conditions modifying the smartphone model, the type of sensors connected to the WPAN, the employed Bluetooth profile (SPP (serial port profile) or HDP (health device profile)), the use of other peripherals, such as a GPS receiver, the impact of the use of theWi-Fi interface or the employed method to encode and forward the data that are collected from the sensors.Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia TEC2009-13763-C02-0

Fun weight

Treball desenvolupat dins el marc del programa 'European Project Semester' i l'"International Design Project Semester".The main objective of the Fun Weight project was to decrease the level of anxiety from children during preoperative treatment, while the gathering of measurements essential for further hospitalization takes place. This assignment has been conducted by an international and multidisciplinary team whose members were from fields of: Product Design, Electronics and Information Communication Technologies, Mechanical Engineering and Information Technology. The project was interesting and constructive due to tight cooperation with the Hospital de Sant Joan de Deu in Barcelona which was the main stakeholder of this project. Methodology of the project consisted of in advance strictly defined steps, which were: researching, designing of the interactive game, designing/development of the application, prototyping of the application, prototyping of the interactive game and testing. However the development of the interactive game and the application have been performed simultaneously. The outcome of this project has reached its end at the 17th of June and concluded following three elements: electronical prototype of the interactive game, three dimensional model of the game and the mobile application for retrieving measurements and communicating with the interactive game. The stage of testing was divided into three independent sections: testing of the application usability, testing of the application functionality and evaluation of actual anxiety decreasing. As a result of application usability test, an average rate of ease of the interface has been obtained at the level of 2 what states for easy to use. Functionality tests have been performed with application of the Angel Sensor in function of the measuring device. In spite of problems encountered during the use of that sensor, basic functionalities of the application have been confirmed. Due to the shortage of the time, evaluation of decrease of anxiety level has not yet been conducted

Analyzing User Acceptance of Mobile Technology in Clinical Settings through Point-of-Care Mobile Applications

The advent of mobile phones has led to global connectivity surpassing any global conversation previously known. However, despite having access to this global network through mobile devices and ever expanding internet access, many developing countries still lack basic medical technology. In many resource-poor medical settings, existing monitors used to process and display medical data received from various sensors (temperature, blood oxygen saturation, heart rate, blood pressure, etc.) are either missing or unreliable. Furthermore, these devices are rarely designed with an interface appropriate for the needs of the end user. Additionally, the use of mobile apps for medical purposes is increasing in developing nations. However, very little structure exists to properly evaluate the usability and potential of specific medical apps. My project aims to provide an alternative to traditional monitoring systems by creating a mobile application for smartphones and tablets that serves to display patient vital signs through a modality that is easily learned and understood by the targeted end user. My project proposes to utilize current mobile phone technology available in rural, developing communities, as well as clinical settings in developed countries, to process and display patient vital signs for diagnostic and point of care purposes. The focus of this study was the experimental analysis of the mobile application user interfaces to promote widespread acceptance and continuous use of the technology for more consistent recording of patient vital signs. Three user interfaces were created for both smartphone and tablet devices and tested at two locations: Oaxaca, Mexico and Clemson, SC. These interfaces were systematically reviewed by measuring potential end users\u27 response to the technology following their direct interaction with the mobile applications. User experience was assessed using a survey that evaluated layout and function of the applications. Statistical analysis of the survey results revealed a variety of correlations between interface design and usability. It was also determined that the technology has the potential for widespread, global implementation. However, further studies integrating the mobile sensors into the interface design should be performed to determine the full potential of the technology
