Abstract:
The electrocardiography (ECG) is an essential diagnostic tool that measures and records the electrical activity of the heart . a wide range of heart conditions can be detected when interpreting the recorded ECG signals.
The project focuses on the patients who are at risk of having heart problems without keeping them at the hospital.
The project consists of ECG monitor device, PIC microcontroller , GSM / GPRS module at the telemedicine unit, GSM / GPRS module at the base unit and PC . the main objective of this project is to transfer the ECG signal from the ambulance/home to the doctor , who is in the emergency center in the hospital. To do this , a microcontroller is used and a PIC software is developed to convert and transmit the analog ECG signal from the GSM / GPRS module at the telemedicine unit to the GSM / GPRS module at the base unit
Also , its very important to develop a software to receive the data from the GSM / GPRS module at the base unit and to display it on the PC.
This is the second part of the documentation and it is concerned with the telecommunication team objectives , components and procedures . the other team ( computer team ) is concerned with the other objectives and components of this project.
