Popis: Health connected is a technology that links medical devices, telecommunications and security techniques. It empowers patients to be observed and treated remotely from their homes. Patient's healthcare records with a connected healthcare system should be stored securely before transmitted for further investigation and interpretation. Electrocardiogram (ECG) is the clinical method utilized to screen heart execution and utilized for the detection of various arrhythmias. For diagnostic purposes, individuals with a background of heart diseases have long records of ECGs, which results in the requirement of a large amount of storage space and labor. Hence, there is a requirement for a system that involves digital signal processing and signal security so that the spared information is made sure about at one spot and an only authentic individual can see and utilize this ECG signal for additional findings. This study presents a set of security solutions that can be deployed in a connected healthcare territory, which includes the fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) techniques used to secure the ECG signals. The study helps the medical provider to record ECG signals confidentially and to prevent mistreatment. The study focuses on Pan and Tompkins algorithm methods for the detection of the ECG Signal. As a result, the output of the Pan and Tompkins algorithm for ECG signal processing with the FHE technique shows a sensitivity of 92.59% and a positive prediction of 90.00%.
