Wearable monitoring system for heart failure assessment in a mobile environment

Abstract:

In Europe, Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) are the leading source of death, causing 45% of all deaths. Besides, Heart Failure, the paradigm of CVD, affects mainly people older than 65. In the current aging society, the European Union funded MyHeart Project, whose mission is empowering citizens to fight CVD by means of a preventive lifestyle and an early diagnosis. This paper presents the design and development of a Heart Failure Management System, based on daily monitoring of Vitals Body Signals, with wearable and mobile technologies, for the continuous assessment of this chronic disease.
