What is Arduino?

✖  open source
Hardware (Arduino I / O board)
Software (Arduino IDE)
✖  Can quickly create electronic
circuit prototypes(electronics
prototyping)
✖  Flexible, easy to use
✖  Target Audience: budget
conscious people and DIYers
What is Arduino?(cont.)

✖  By sensors can sense changes in

the surrounding environment (eg:
infrared sensors)
✖  Be able to control the surrounding
devices (such as: light)
✖  Arduino circuit can operate
independently
✖  Arduino circuit can also match
your computer Operation,
communication with the computer

The three most important commands for this guide are seen below:
 Bare Minimum?

The setup() function is called when a sketch starts. Use it to initialize

variables, pin modes, start using libraries, etc. The setup function will only
run once, after each powerup or reset of the Arduino board.
void setup() {
// put your setup code here, to run once:

}

1.  Introduction to E-Health & M-Health

a.  Why are they important?
b.  Embedded systems relation
2.  Arduino Health Kit
 What is E-Health/M-Health

✖  E-Health in a nutshell is: healthcare practice supported by electronic processes

and communication.

✖  M-Health is the practice of medicine and public health supported by mobile

devices.

Body temperature

The commonly accepted average core

body temperature is 37.0°C (98.6°F).

In healthy adults, body temperature

fluctuates about 0.5°C (0.9°F) throughout
the day.
Patient position and falls
standing/sitting
Skin conductance-Galvanic Skin Response (GSR)
 Skin conductance-Galvanic Skin Response (GSR)

In skin conductance response method,

conductivity of skin is measured at
fingers of the palm.
Polygraph
The principle or theory behind
functioning of galvanic response sensor
is to measure electrical skin resistance
based on sweat produced by the body.
✖  Conductance:
✖  Resistance
✖  Conductance Voltage
 Pulse and Oxygen in Blood (SPO2)

Pulse oximeters are devices that are used

to indirectly measure the amount of oxygen
in the blood by measuring a quantity known
as oxygen saturation, or SpO2.

Two different light wavelengths are used to

measure the actual difference in the
absorption spectra of HbO2(Hemoglobin)
and Hb(Deoxyhemoglobin).

A pulse oximeter will also record your heart rate. Normal

heart rates are as follows, depicted in beats per
minute (bpm):

●  Elderly Person (75+): Normal - 90

●  Adult: Normal - 60-80 / Rapid - 100+ /
Slow - below 60
●  Adolescent: Normal - 60-105 / Rapid -
105+ / Slow - below 50
●  Child (5-12 years): Normal - 60-120 / Rapid
- 120+ / Slow - below 60
●  Child (1-5 years): Normal - 80-150 / Rapid
- 150+ / Slow below 80
●  Infant: Normal - 120-150 / Rapid - 150+ /
Slow - below 120
