Abstract :
This presentation provides a description of a new mobile ECG telemonitoring system. The portable ECG monitoring terminal in the system consists of GPRS and GPS module in order to send the ECG signal data through GPRS network with the position information of the user, and a accelerometer is embedded in the terminal to sense the sudden posture change of the user, this will enable the monitoring center in the system give a immediately response to the user who suffer a suddenly cardiac failure.
