Monitoring the heart-beat

Instantaneous monitoring of heart beat dynamics during anesthesia and sedation

Microcontroller Based Heart Beat Monitoring and Alerting System

This paper describes the development of a heart beat monitor system based on a microcontroller. The paper explains how a single-chip microcontroller can be usedto analyze heart beat rate in real-time. In addition, it allows doctors to get the heart beat and location of the patient by GSM every twenty four hours. It can also be used to control patients or athletic person over a long period. The ...

Beat Heart Disease

The initiation of the heart beat.

During a normal lifetime, the heart may beat over 2 billion times, but the mechanisms by which the heart beats are initiated remain a subject of intense investigation. Since the discovery of a pacemaker current (I(f)) in 1978, multiple studies have shown that rhythmic changes in membrane voltage (the "membrane voltage clock") underlie the mechanisms of automaticity. The I(f) is a depolarization...

The Real Time Wireless Sensor Network for Heart Beat Monitoring using Zigbee Module

In this system using the features and technology of wireless sensor networks such as distributed and self-organization to build Heartbeat monitoring system, which can monitor the Heartbeat of human in real time. This system applies RF communication protocol and uses the 2.4 GHZ Zigbee as RF transceiver. It has the characteristics of low power consumption, low cost, flexible structure and accura...
