Abstract

The paper presents a remote monitoring system for electrocardiographic and temperature signals. The system consists of a hardware module for acquisition, a Bluetooth transmission module and finally a displaying module (PC or mobile devices). Information is sent via IP (GPRS or WiFi) to a database server containing clinical data, which can be accessed through a web application. The system was assessed by testing different patients with the support of a medical doctor, obtaining a positive performance.
