Real-Time Data Acquisition in Human Physiology: Real-Time Acquisition, Processing, and Interpretation--A Matlab-Based Approach

Real-Time Data Acquisition in Human Physiology: Real-Time Acquisition, Processing, and Interpretation--A MATLAB-Based Approach focuses on the design and development of a computer-based system to detect and digitally process human ECG, EMG, and carotid pulse waveforms in real time. The indigenous system developed and described in this book allows for an easy-to-interface, simple hardware arrangement for bio-signal detection. The computational functionality of MATLAB is verified for viewing, digital filtration, and feature extraction of acquired bio-signals.

This book demonstrates a method of providing a relatively cost-effective solution to human physiology real-time monitoring, processing, and interpretation that is more realizable and would directly benefit a larger population of patients.
