Abstract :
According to WHO(World Health Organization), estimated about 17 million people die around the world due to cardio vascular diseases, particularly heart attack, in them most of the deaths are due to untimely intervention. If proper medical care can be given to the patients at the right time their lives can be saved, for that all we need is a system that continuously monitors ones ECG signal, so we have introduced a system called CUEDETA. The name CUEDETA comes from the word cuerpo which means human body and detalles which means details. 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 propagated in a arranged 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. Here the software frame work is developed in android to support diverse class of mobile devices.
