A small size ubiquitous healthcare system for the home care of elderly persons was designed and implemented.The system comprised a wireless sensor network node,base station and server computer for the continuous monitoring of ECG signals.ECG data,an important vital sign that is commonly used in clinical and trauma care,were displayed on a graphical user interface (GUI) by transferring the data to a PDA or a terminal PC.This data transfer was accomplished through a base-station connected to a server computer using TCP/IP.Real-time ECG data of elderly persons or patients,as well as historical data,can also be retrieved and played back to assist the diagnosis.The ubiquitous healthcare system presented in this study can effectively reduce social medical expenses,which will increase greatly in the aging society.
