Connected health is the convergence of medical devices, security devices, and communication technologies. It enables patients to be monitored and treated remotely from their home or primary care facility rather than attend outpatient clinics or be admitted to hospital. Patients’ data and medical records within a connected health system should be securely transmitted and saved for further analysis and diagnosis. This paper presents a reconfigurable wireless system for electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring which can be deployed in a connected health environment. Efficient field programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation for the ECG encryption block has been carried out on the RC10 prototyping board using the advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithm. Results presented have shown that the proposed AES implementation outperforms the existing FPGA-based systems in different key performance metrics and that ECG signals acquired using the VitalSens device can be encrypted/decrypted in real-time. A software based evaluation approach has been also performed to validate the proposed hardware implementation. The proposed solution can be deployed for electronic archiving of health records information systems and health monitoring technologies in personalized medicine.

An increasing number of patients, high cost, lack of mobility, isolation from professional environment, among others issues demand a technology in which a patient should be monitored from home instead of hospital. This will force the development of more cost-effective and advanced wireless telemedicine solutions. The parameters like types of input (i.e. ECG, blood pressure, body temperature, etc.), sampling rate, distance between wireless modules, number of sensors connected in wireless network, adaptability of algorithms for signal processing, size of the device and power consumption can affect the performance and cost of the systems. This paper illustrates hardware for wireless ECG system and the performance of various algorithms applied to ECG received wirelessly in the standing and sitting position of patient; and with different sampling frequencies to meet the requirements of system low cost and easily adaptability. To demonstrate the work, a prototype of ECG front end is developed, tested and interfaced with Bluetooth module which digitizes the analog ECG signal and transmits the signal wirelessly to Bluetooth enabled devices. The algorithms like piecewise moving average, moving average, and S-Golay algorithm are implemented on the captured ECG with different sampling frequencies and with different positions of patient; and are compared. A template for moving average and piecewise algorithms is written in Microsoft (MS) Excel and tested for real time data update. The proposed system has successfully used the Bluetooth technology to transmit and receive physical signals along with testing of operational features of transmitting device through the air. The results show that a novel algorithm is required which can efficiently remove high frequency noise in any physical condition of patient and can be easily implemented in existing Mobile/PDA/Laptop, etc. to meet the system requirement of low cost and adaptability.Index Terms Bluetooth TM , ECG, Measurement system, Serial port profile (SPP) " , IEEE 978-1-4577-0787-2/11/$26.00 ©2011 IEEE
