Abstract

The electrocardiogram is a physiological signal as the key for assessing the public health. Our development of the electrocardiography (EKG) using two electrodes was designed upon the two-position measurement method. The electrodes sense the electrocardiography signals from the skin, and transfer to the amplifier unit. The amplifier was designed for high input impedance with lower noise (sound pitch). The amplified signal filters the sound reduction before digitizing to digital signal. The data signal is sent to the EKG Analyzer System via Bluetooth wireless communications and displays the EKG signal in real time. The Wireless and Cloud Electrocardiography (W&C EKG) is safe for human on electrical shock hazards as a result of the electrodes and measurement unit, the use of small batteries, and a completely isolated from electrical power source. The system provides the analysis functions of cardiac time intervals, PR interval, QRS interval, QT interval, RR interval, and ST segment in line with the medical device standards. The personal records stored on Cloud system can be displayed on the computer global network, personal computers, notebook computers and portable devices such as mobile phones or Tablets. The W&C EKG could be used for monitoring health applications and conditions to improve personal health life style and activities.
