Abstract:
Telemedicine is gaining more and more momentum as a new approach for patients'surveillance. In many monitoring parameters, electrocardiography is the most important, especially for monitoring patients with serious cardiovascular diseases. They need to be monitored frequently in order to detect any deterioration. In this paper,we design a electrocardiographic telemetry system using General Packet Radio Service(GPRS). This design adds to traditional Holter capability of monitoring the patients'heart anywhere, anytime.
