Electrocardiogram

This article is a stub. You can help the OLPC project by expanding it.

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

• Now we have an excellent way to do an ECG measurement, through Measure.

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 security part, when we are dealing with Bio-measurements the key is security.
• The third part is adapt Measure UI to outline the signal.

Key features

• Security Security and More security.
• Low Cost
• Easy to use
• Good documentation

The long time consuming part

• Get approval from the health organizations.
