Dyheartmon – Monitoring Ambulatorial and Remote Residential Blood Pressure Based on the Internet of Things
Abstract
Lifestyle is the main factor for the development of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, proper health care can greatly reduce the likelihood of heart problems, as well as routine examinations and follow-up by a cardiologist. There are several conventional tests to support the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases, which are often tiresome and costly to the patient. DyHEARTMon aims to be an alternative and complementary internet based tool of things for patients and health professionals associated with cardiovascular disease. Through a hybrid solution (smartband, smartphone and dashboard), the heart rate and blood pressure will be captured so that the potential risk of hypertension of the monitored individual is analyzed and presented, thus presenting an alternative to the Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) and Home Blood Pressure Monitoring (HBPM).
