Abstract

심전도 측정기와 청진기를 통하여 획득된 심전도와 심음도는 비관혈적 방법으로 환자를 진단할 수 있는 생체신호이며, 의사들의 진단도구로 널리 이용되어져 왔다. 그러나 의사들이 심전도 측정기나 청진기를 이용하여 환자를 진단하는 장소는 병원 내 진료실과 응급실로 한정되어 있기 때문에, 병원에서 거리가 먼 원거리 지역이나 자동차, 비행기, 선박에서는 환자의 심음을 확인할 수 없다. 특히, 원양항해에 종사하는 선박 환자는 전문 의료진으로부터 진료를 받을 수 없는 경우가 있다. 본 논문에서는 환자의 심음 및 심전을 용이하게 측정함으로써 PC기반의 선박용 디지털 심전도 및 청진기를 개발하였으며, 해상 원격진료의 출현을 앞 당길 수 있으리라 본다. Electrocardiogram and phonocardiogram acquired from ECG and stethoscope by a non-invasive method are bio-signals which laue been a great role in patients diagnosis and used extensively by doctors. And these are mainly used at the examination room or first-and room of hospital. When the patients are located at some places far away from hospital like a car, an airplane and a vessel under way, there are some difficulties in confirming their cardiac sound Especially the patient of ocean going vessel might not have a medical treatment from the professional doctor at times. In this paper, we developed the digital ECG and stethoscope system based on personal computer which can easily measure the patient's cardiac sound and ECG signal, and this might shorten the appearance of the remote maritime telemedicine.
