Photoplethysmography based remote health monitoring system

One of the world's most leading killer diseases is the cardiovascular disease, which accounts for 16.7 million deaths annually. Out of the total population in the world, about 22 million people run the risk of sudden heart failure. However, saving the lives of cardiac patients can be improv...

Telemedicine provides a great impact in the emergency monitoring of patients located in remote nonclinical environments.
