Summary: | 碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 醫學工程研究所碩博士班 === 98 === With the progress of medical technology level and the increasement of aging population, the demand for move assistive devices follows to increase. The invention of smart carrier helps paraplegic patients to change body posture and position. In order to prevent the damage due to posture change, the patient’s physiology conditions need to be monitored when using smart carrier.
The aim of this study is to set up a physiological monitoring system. Physiological parameters such as ECG, respiratory rate and blood pressure are monitored. The data transmit to the monitoring system via Bluetooth wireless technology for long-term real time monitoring and analysis.
A wireless portable device based on microcontroller(PIC24F)is used to acquire the physiological signals and then transmit them to the monitoring system via Bluetooth wireless technology. The acquired signals and waveform are displayed on a screen and saved for further processing. Furthermore, when the physiological signal is unusual, a warn signal will be sent to provide early warning in the shortest time.
