본 논문은 이상 상황을 탐지하고 모니터링하는 다양한 서비스가 존재한다. 하지만 대부분의 서비스는 화재, 가스누출에 초점을 맞추어 진행되고 있으며, 독거노인과 중증장애인들의 사망 혹은 심정지 등 위급상황에 대하여 사전 예방 및 위급상황 대응이 불가능하다. 본 연구에서는 여러 생체신호 중 가장 위중하다고 판단되는 심박 신호의 이상 상태를 탐지하기 위하여 인공지능 모델을 설계하는 과정에서 적합한 데이터 변형과 모델을 비교한다. 세부적으로는 오픈 의료 데이터 PhysioNet의 MIT-BIH Arrhythmia Database를 이용하여 심전도(ECG) 데이터를 수집하고, 수집한 데이터를 각각 다른 방법으로 데이터를 변형한 후 학습하여 기본 심전도 데이터를 이용해 학습한 인공지능 모델과 비교한다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze physiological changes via a cold air reaction experiment to generate basic data that are useful for the development of an automobile active air conditioning system to prevent drowsiness. The $CO_2$ concentration causing drowsiness in vehicle operation was kept below a certain level. Air was blown to the driver's face by using an indoor air cooling apparatus. Sleepiness and the arousal state of the driver in cold wind were measured by physiological signals. It was evident in the EEG that alpha waves decreased and beta waves increased, caused by cold air stimulation. The ${\alpha}/{\beta}$ ratio was reduced by about 52.9% and an alert state confirmed. In the electrocardiogram analysis, the efficiency of cold air stimulation was confirmed by the mean heart rate interval change. The R-R interval had a delay time of about one minute compared to the EEG response. The findings confirmed an arousal effect from sleepiness due to cold air stimulation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to provide basic information to develop appropriate nursing guidelines for cardiac telemetry. Methods: This retrospective research was conducted to identify the current usage of cardiac telemetry and considered 1,000 patients hospitalized for telemetry. The collected data were analyzed using IBM (SPSS Statistics for Windows 21.0). Results: Four-hundred and ninety-two patients (49.2%) were diagnosed with arrhythmia and 209 (20.9%) with heart failure. Electrocardiogram (ECG) rhythm changes were detected via telemetry in 464 cases. Major arrhythmias were ventricular tachycardia (183, 39.4%) and bradycardia (99, 21.3%). Interventions after detecting arrhythmia were cardioversion (16, 3.4%), defibrillation (1, 0.2%), and cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation (5, 1.1%); other patients were treated conservatively with close observation (381, 82.1%). Conclusion: There was appropriate intervention in 46.4% of the considered cases with the detection of ECG changes before patient notification, which implied that cardiac telemetry could be considered for application to patients with hemodynamic instability. Clear standards and guidelines are required to determine who requires telemetry and when to end the telemetry monitoring.

As electrocardiogram (ECG) signals are generally sampled with a frequency of over 200 Hz, a method to compress diagnostic information without losing data is required to store and transmit them efficiently on a wireless personal area network (WPAN). In this paper, an ECG signal compression method for communications onWPAN, which uses feature points based on curvature, is proposed. The feature points of P, Q, R, S, and T waves, which are critical components of the ECG signal, have large curvature values compared to other vertexes. Thus, these vertexes were extracted with the proposed method, which uses local extrema of curvatures. Furthermore, in order to minimize reconstruction errors of the ECG signal, extra vertexes were added according to the iterative vertex selectionmethod. Through the experimental results on the ECG signals from Massachusetts Institute of Technology-Beth Israel hospital arrhythmia database, it was concluded that the vertexes selected by the proposed method preserved all feature points of the ECG signals. In addition, it was more efficient than the amplitude zone time epoch coding method.

Mean-reverting analysis refers to a way of estimating the underlining tendency after new data has evoked the variation in the equilibrium state. In this paper, we propose a new method to interpret the specular portraits of Premature Ventricular Contraction(PVC) arrhythmia by applying K-means unsupervised learning algorithm on electrocardiogram(ECG) data. Aiming at this purpose, we applied a mean-reverting model to analyse Heart Rate Variability(HRV) in terms of the modified poincare plot by considering PVC rhythm as the component of disrupting the homeostasis state. Based on our experimental tests on MIT-BIH ECG database, we can find the fact that the specular patterns portraited by K-means clustering on mean-reverting HRV data can be more clearly visible and the Euclidean metric can be used to identify the discrepancy between the normal sinus rhythm and PVC beats by the relative distance among cluster-centroids.

In this study, a new type of electrode device is implemented to measure the capacitance energy and interpret it as the ECG (Electrocardiogram) data. The main idea of this new electrode system is to estimate the capacitance on the skin by assembling a capacitive-coupled circuits and translate into the ECG signal. To measure the coupling energy and estimate the aquired data in terms of heart activity, the capacitive-coupled electrode is garmented with fabrics in the form of a chest band or a vest jacket. To compare the ECG data from the capacitive-coupled electrode with the conventional electrode(Ag-AgCl) system, the corelation coefficient between two signals is computed as 0.9517. Thus, we can conclude the fact that capacitive-coupled electrode system can measure a person's heart activity without any contact to his or her skin and can the interpreted as the ECG data.

현대인들은 불안정한 소득과 타인과의 갈등 등 다양한 요소로 인하여 정신건강 관리가 필요하다는 주장이 있다. 최근에는 웨어러블 장비에 심전도(Electrocardiogram, ECG)를 측정할 수 있는 장비가 보급되고 있으며, 해외의 경우 의학적 보조수단으로 활용된 사례를 볼 수 있다[14]. 이와 같은 기능을 활용하는 것으로 대표적인 감정(기쁨, 슬픔, 분노 등)을 객관적인 수치로 구별하는 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 연구는 제한적인 환경에서 복합적인 생체 신호를 수집하는 것으로 정확도를 높이고 있다. 따라서 각각의 자극에 대한 생체 정보의 변화와 판별에 가장 많은 영향을 미친 요소를 살펴본다.

Wireless tele-home-care application gives new possibilities for ECG (electrocardiogram) monitoring system with wearable biomedical sensors. Thus, continuously development of high convenient ECG monitoring system for high-risk cardiac patients is essential. This paper describes to monitor a person's ECG using wearable approach. A wearable belt-type ECG electrode with integrated electronics has been developed and has proven long-term robustness and monitoring of all electrical components. The measured ECG signal is transmitted via an ultra low power consumption wireless sensor node. ECG signals carry a lot clinical information for a cardiologist especially the R-peak detection in ECG. R-peak detection generally uses the threshold value which is fixed thus it bring errors due to motion artifacts and signal size changes. Variable threshold method is used to detect the R-peak which is more accurate and efficient. In order to evaluate the performance analysis, R-peak detection using MIT-BIH databases and Long Term Real-Time ECG is performed in this research. This concept able to allow patient to follow up critical patients from their home and early detecting rarely occurrences of cardiac arrhythmia.

UWB(Ultra-wideband)는 송신 안테나에서 UWB 대역을 송신한 신호를 수신 안테나를 통해 받은 신호를 가지고 목표물을 판단하는 고해상도 근거리 초광대역 레이더로 비접촉으로 사람의 호흡 및 심박을 감지할 수 있고, 환경에 영향을 받지 않아 최근 활용도가 높아지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 UWB 레이더 신호를 이용하여 사람의 호흡과 심박수를 감지하는 알고리즘을 구현한다. 인체에서부터 반사되어 들어온 레이더 신호를 메디안 필터, 칼만 필터, 밴드 패스필터 등을 이용하여 처리한다. 또한 호흡수와 심박수를 추출하기 위하여 CZT를 이용한다. 비교하는 심박 데이터로는 ECG(Electrocardiogram)를 사용하였으며, 약 98% 이상 일치함을 확인하였다.
