An electrocardiogram or ECG is a graph which reproduces the electric behavior of the heart over time. This graphs and its derivatives/integrals yield critical information about diseases y overall behavior of the heart
XO tools
Why to do it
- This is an excellent way to help children learn about the behavior of the heart.
- Can be a way of prevent and diagnose diseases.
How to do it
- First we need an outside circuit that allows to amplified the electrical signal produced from the output of a sensor known as electrode, this amplified output should be enough for being read by Measure without noise.
- The second part is the safety part, when we are dealing with the heart there is a very real risk of causing serious problems via current leakage.
- The third part is adapt Measure UI to outline the signal.
Key features
- Doesn't kill children
- Low Cost
- Easy to use
- Good documentation
Extensions
The long time consuming part
- Get approval from the health organizations.
