ABSTRACT
In order to solve the problem of communication interference and communication distance caused by the rapid pacing system when establishing the rapid atrial fibrillation model, a low-power implantable pacing system based on 433 MHz communication frequency to form a star network is designed. The system includes an implantable pacemaker, a programmer head, and programmer software. The pacemaker is composed of a wireless communication module, a pacing module, an ECG monitoring module, and a power management module. The programmer head acts as an intermediate node in the star network and is controlled by PC programmer software to program each pacemaker. This article introduces the hardware design and software flow of each part of the system, and describes the results of in vivo simulation and in vivo animal models of the system. The results show that the designed system and application method are effective and feasible for the rapid atrial pacing atrial fibrillation model. 433 MHz wireless communication, implantable, pacemaker system, low-power, ECG monitoring.

Objective:To design a web-based monitoring system for rehabilitation equipment in order to solve the problems of inadequate monitoring system for existing rehabilitation equipment and poor communication between doctors and patients. Methods:The system was composed of device communication layer, server layer and user access layer, which was implemented by B/S architecture. Rehabilitation equipment was connected with intelligent gateway through wireless communication module. HTTP protocol and socket communication technology were used to realize remote communication between rehabilitation equipment and platform server. The server layer mainly used MVC design pattern and J2EE technology, adopted the current popular Web framework SSM (Spring + Spring MVC + MyBatis) design, MySQL database was responsible for data storage. User access layer was designed with HTML5+JSP+Bootstrap+HighCharts+CSS+JavaScript+Ajax and other technologies. Results:By deploying the public network of the project, the remote monitoring experiment of the equipment was carried out. The upload of status information and the download of page control instructions could be responded in a short time interval. Considering the factors such as network delay, the design met the requirements. Conclusion:This system is simple to operate and efficient to transmiss data between platform and equipment. It can provide convenient service support for medical staff, patients and equipment administrators.
ABSTRACT
Uninterrupted monitoring of multiple subjects is required for mass causality events, in hospital environment or for sports by medical technicians or physicians. Movement of subjects under monitoring requires such system to be wireless, sometimes demands multiple transmitters and a receiver as a base station and monitored parameter must not be corrupted by any noise before further diagnosis. A Bluetooth Piconet network is visualized, where each subject carries a Bluetooth transmitter module that acquires vital sign continuously and relays to Bluetooth enabled device where, further signal processing is done. In this paper, a wireless network is realized to capture ECG of two subjects performing different activities like cycling, jogging, staircase climbing at 100 Hz frequency using prototyped Bluetooth module. The paper demonstrates removal of baseline drift using Fast Fourier Transform and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform and removal of high frequency noise using moving average and S-Golay algorithm. Experimental results highlight the efficacy of the proposed work to monitor any vital sign parameters of multiple subjects simultaneously. The importance of removing baseline drift before high frequency noise removal is shown using experimental results. It is possible to use Bluetooth Piconet frame work to capture ECG simultaneously for more than two subjects. For the applications where there will be larger body movement, baseline drift removal is a major concern and hence along with wireless transmission issues, baseline drift removal before high frequency noise removal is necessary for further feature extraction.
