Abstract :
This paper describes the development and testing of a prototype home ECG (electrocardiograph) system that obtains patient´s ECG signal and processes it to determine related parameters using LabVIEW software. These parameters include heart rate, PR-interval, QT-interval, ST-interval, P-wave and T-wave durations. The recorded ECG signal and related parameters are transmitted over the Internet to the remote station. The developed system was tested using simulated ECG, web-based ECG, and physically acquired ECG.
