Development of Low-Cost ECG System for Comprehensive Monitoring Heart Function

Abstract

A simple system, a low-cost, fully automated, and design for monitoring RR interval Electrocardiography (ECG) signal described in this paper. The platform, named Simple Low-Cost Electrocardiography System (SLES), is capable of monitoring RR interval and R peaks in 3 lead standards. The system is in .exe format, so it can be easily installed on a computer. The system's goal is to design a fully integrated system for measuring a characteristic of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) parameters for various applications in heart signal research and education. The ECG signal is analog filtered and amplified and processed from analog to digital. Eventually, the ECG signal will be shown on the monitor after digital filtering. The data obtained from the ECG will accurately reflect the status of human heart health. The system has the benefits of small volume, low power consumption, low cost, and real-time operation. All design and development reports, files, and system software will be given non-commercial use online on https://github.com/oktivasari.
