Activity monitoring and meal tracking for cardiac rehabilitation patients

Abstract

Heart disease has been ranked as the first cause for death in Pakistan along with being the leading cause of death worldwide (https://www.cdc.gov). Recovering heart patients need to monitor their diet and activity routines to mitigate chances of another occurrence (https://www.heart.org). The proposed application aims to provide a platform that would help patients to keep track of their activity, alongside allowing the patients to keep track of their diet; which will act as fitness monitoring for cardiac rehabilitation patients. Further more, activity classification algorithm used only seven features to shows classification into five different classes with accuracy of 98% in real time. Also, meal tracking module is designed to support the cardiac patients with timely feedback and notifications about their dietary routine.
