Design of remote ECG monitoring system based on GPRS

A remote ECG monitoring system design method based on GPRS wireless communication is proposed. This method mainly uses MSP430F2418 monolithic processor as controller, combined with SIM300 GPRS wireless communication module, through AT instructions to devise ECG monitoring instrument. Meanwhile, using VB6.0 and SQL Server2000 development tools based on Winsock network programming technique, design and develop remote ECG monitoring software in doctor workstation, realizing the remote monitoring of ECG signals. The ECG monitoring system has been applied to clinical trials, and getting the patient's approval.
