Popis: Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) remain the most common cause of death worldwide. Standard techniques such as 12-leads electrocardiogram (ECG) or Holter system are not sufficient to fully address some sporadic ECG anomalies like atrial fibrillation. Several low-cost wearable devices have already been proposed but, each of them misses some important features. The ECG WATCH has been developed to target these problems. It is a non-expensive, wearable, easy-to-use health device to monitor CVD patients heart activity anytime, anywhere, without the need to go physically to hospitals or cardiologists. Recordings need just 10 seconds; it also embeds an algorithm to detect possible atrial fibrillation episodes.
