  • Abstract
    Continuing monitoring pulse is very important for the patients setting pacemaker. Keeping observing blood pressure is also a matter of concern for those who have hypertension, coronary heart disease, or other cardiovascular diseases. There are many complicating with cardiac arrhythmia and hypertension or other cardiovascular disease. Not only to eliminate arrhythmia, also to treat patients as a whole of body. Therefore, how to keeping monitoring blood pressure and pulses rise to a very important issue. This research edits a wristable sphygmomanometer and pulsometer combining with cell phone, to achieve wireless, continuing, and real-time observation. Except monitoring pacemaker function and observing hypertension, coronary heart disease, heart, or other cardiovascular disease changes, be early to know the patient setting pacemaker complication occurring.
