Abstract A portable electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring system is essential for elderly and remote patients who are not able to visit the hospital regularly. The system connects a patient to his/her doctor through an Internet of Things (IoT) cloud server that provides all the information needed to diagnose heart diseases. Patients use an ECG monitoring device to collect and upload information regarding their current medical situation via the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol to the server. The IoT cloud server performs further analysis that can be useful for both the doctor and the patient. Moreover, the proposed system has an alert… More >

Abstract Electrocardiography (ECG) is a heart signal wave that is recorded using medical sensors, which are normally attached to the human body by the heart. ECG waves have repetitive patterns that can be efficiently used in the diagnosis of heart problems as they carry several characteristics of heart operation. Traditionally, the analysis of ECG waves is done using informal techniques, like simulation, which is in-exhaustive and thus the analysis results may lead to ambiguities and life threatening scenarios in extreme cases. In order to overcome such problems, we propose to analyze ECG heart signals using probabilistic model checking, which is a… More >
