Design and Implementation of Portable Low-Cost Heart Rate Monitoring ECG System
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2025, Vol 10, Issue 01
Abstract
Electrocardiogram is an important health parameter in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, which are among the leading cause of death in the world including Nigeria. This research work “portable low-cost heart rate monitoring ECG system” is designed to assist patient with cardiovascular diseases to monitor their heart condition. It will also assist the medical personnel during the diagnosis of cardiovascular issues. We have used bottom-top software development approach to design an easy to use ECG system by interfacing AD8232 ECG sensor module with Arduino Nano as microcontroller to measure the electrical activity of the heart otherwise known as ‘electrocardiogram’ in BPM (Beat Per Minute) and display the digital reading on a 1602 LCD screen. The coding was done in Arduino IDE using C++ programming language. The system will eliminate the rigorous routine of medical trip and will go a long way to save life as most of the sickness has their root traced to the electrical impulses of the heart.
