Smart Healthcare Device for Cardiac Patients

Heart diseases can be considered as the most occurring long-lasting diseases in modern times. In this paper a standalone smart healthcare device is developed and implemented. The device can monitor the heart condition based on the measured electrocardiogram (ECG) signal and send/save updated report for the patient, doctor or health care center (HCC). This collected data is also processed and analyzed inside the device by using multi-layer perceptron to predict any abnormal behavior. In case of any abnormalities, the device will send an alarm to the patient, and also sort of data could be submitted through the cloud to the health care center. In case of an emergency, the system has the capability to send a call/SMS with location information to the emergency department for an action.
