  • Abstract
    We want to introduce a device for arrhythmia tracking, in order to detect the presence of arrhythmia during sleep and outdoor. In this work, we have developed such a highly sensitive and accurate arrhythmia detector. The device is based on the Pan-Tompkins algorithm for QRS-detection to detect the normal and abnormal heartbeats. The device will be connected to the doctor or hospital by sending SMS over periodic time that will include the heath statues of the patient and in the cases of emergency that will cause a serious health problem to the patient. Also the device will send a data of heart signal to the server and the doctor can see this signal using Mobile Application.
