چکیده
In this study, we present a mobile health (m-Health) system that will be used for continuous monitoring of children with suspected cardiac arrhythmias. The system is able to do real-time acquisition and transmission of ECG signals, and facilitate an alarm scheme able to identify possible arrhythmias so as to notify the on-call doctor and the relatives of the child that an event or something that denotes malfunc-

An mHealth System for Monitoring of Children with Suspected Cardiac Arrhythmias
Arrhythmia is one of the most difficult problems in cardiology and especially in pediatric cardiology. In this study, the authors present a mobile health (m-health) system that can be used for continuous monitoring of children (ages 0-16 years) with suspected cardiac arrhythmias. The system is able to carry-out real-time acquisition and transmission of ECG signals, and facilitate an alarm schem...

متن کاملA System for Continuous Estimating and Monitoring Cardiac Output via Arterial Waveform Analysis
Background: Cardiac output (CO) is the total volume of blood pumped by the heart per minute and is a function of heart rate and stroke volume. CO is one of the most important parameters for monitoring cardiac function, estimating global oxygen delivery and understanding the causes of high blood pressure. Hence, measuring CO has always been a matter of interest to researchers and clinicians. Sev...
متن کاملEmergency diagnosis and management of common pediatric tachyarrhythmia
Tachycardia is common in the pediatric age group. The most commonly seen arrhythmias in children are sinus tachycardia. However, supraventricular tachycardia is the most common tachyarrhythmia that necessitates treatment. Ventricular tachycardia is rare in healthy children but may be associated with sudden cardiac death. The important risk factors that predispose children for arrhythmias inclu...
متن کاملDesigning and Evaluating an Education-based Follow-up System for Cardiac Patients
Introduction: Chronic diseases are among the most challenging health issues in the world. Although no definitive treatment has been found for such diseases, electronic health strategies can dramatically reduce their complications by enhancing patientschr('39') awareness and monitoring their treatment. The main objective of this study was to design an education-based follow-up system for cardiac...
