In this project a portable ECG monitoring device have been implemented that may be carried by a Diabetic for monitoring ECG data and transmitting the data through the GPRS services network to a database on the remote server in Monitoring Center for analysis. Analyzing software on the server collect, store up and analyses ECG data in the database and visualizes the actual ECG signal to the hospital side computer. This project is Biomedical Engineering MS student's Thesis with tendency Medical information technology management of Amirkabir University of Technology in Tehran, Iran. Keywords: Telemedicine, Portable Device, Electrocardiogram, Diabetic Patient. 1. Introduction In the past, medical procedures depended on presence patient and physician at a particular time and place. But telemedicine has grown with major developments in information and communication technology and by overcoming geographical boundaries and barriers, improve the quality of health care or treatment of disease. Telemedicine can lead to better use of treated patients in golden hours; duration disease to reach treatment centers, the most important time to treat patients So that mentioned this time as the golden hour [1]. Medical services provided at each point and prevent the referral patient to the medical center. It can also monitor patient after discharge from hospital will be improving the quality of treatment. Continuous monitoring of patients at each point, On the other hand the duration of hospitalization for patients using telemedicine are reduced in the hospital system and patients can immediately resume their normal activities. Various medical and patient information stored in a memory and access to those in telemedicine system are provided by using a time and place for nurses and medical professionals [2]. Increase the number of people suffering from diseases that require continuous monitoring, such as heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure and so on, and review reports from the World Health Organization indicates that a large number of deaths in the world occur, followed by cardiovascular disease. Studies also show that diabetes plays an essential role in the development of cardiovascular disease, and hypertension [1, 2]. ECG is an important tool in diagnosing patients presented to an emergency room with chest pain. Portable electrocardiogram monitoring devices for use by persons at home or work environments have long been known. In this project, portable compact device have been implemented that may be carried by a Diabetic for monitoring ECG data and transmitting the data through the GPRS services network to a database on the remote server in Monitoring Center for analysis. Analyzing software on the server collects, store up and analyses ECG data in the database and visualizes the actual ECG signal to the hospital side computer [3,4].
