Abstract

Recent rapid growth in mobile computing technologies enables telemedicine applications to operate on mobile devices. Our focus is on the design of an integrated electrocardiogram (ECG) beat detector on a personal digital assistant (PDA) platform for the health screening process. The ECG beat detector module will be supported by the PDA version of personal health information management system (PHIMS) and facilitated accurate referral management system (FARMS) through wireless network infrastructure as a home-based mobile cardiac monitoring solution
