Biological Parameter Monitoring using Android Smartphone

Abstract

This paper describes work in progress regarding personalized heart monitoring using smart phones. Our research combines ubiquitous computing with mobile health technology. We have introduced a system called CUEDETA. This system will continuously monitors the ECG signals of the patient and send alerts to his/her contacts, medical professional and ambulance services. The alert also includes a URL which can be used to find the exact position of the patient using Google maps. The alerts are arranged in fashion, so that the patient and his/her social contacts have a chance to detect false alerts before contacting medical professionals, this is possible by connecting wireless heart rate monitoring device to the body and interfacing it with a smart phone.
