Smart System for Realtime Electrocardiogram Monitoring and Storage

Abstract

In the past few years, the fields of Internet of things, cloud computing and mobile application development have significantly advanced and improved the remote healthcare industry. IOT technology especially has helped in bringing together the both doctors and patients massively. Through this paper, an IOT based solution for Electrocardiogram(ECG) monitoring and the result storage is proposed. The system is built with sensors, ESP32 Wi-Fi module, ESP32 Camera module, Web Sockets and cloud based web applications. Cloud services are helping us tremendously in storing data and real-time monitoring of that data for better diagnosis and treatment of the patient are provided. Patients vital data can be sent to physicians and monitored on a regular basis. According to the current research, heart disease is increasing massively in India. It states that with upcoming years, the number of heart patients in India will surpass all the countries. This fact itself shows how important it is for monitoring the heart condition. The ECG machines which are available in hospitals are quiet expensive. The aim of this project is to provide a cost efficient solution which helps people to afford ECG monitoring at ease.
