Abstrakt: The use of technology in healthcare is one of the most critical application areas today. With the development of medical applications, people's quality of life has improved. However, it is impractical and unnecessary for medium-risk people to receive specialized daily hospital monitoring. Due to their health status, they will be exposed to a high risk of severe health damage or even life-threatening conditions without monitoring. Therefore, remote, real-time, low-cost, wearable, and effective monitoring is ideal for this problem. Many researchers mentioned that their studies could use electrocardiogram (ECG) detection to discover emergencies. However, how to respond to discovered emergencies in household life is still a research gap in this field.•This paper proposes a real-time monitoring of ECG signals and sending them to the cloud for Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) prediction.•Unlike previous studies, the proposed system has an additional emergency response mechanism to alert nearby community healthcare workers when SCD is predicted to occur.
