Arrhythmia monitor open source

an irregular heart rate monitor and detector using the Zephyr HxM BT

This app assumes you have a Zephyr HxM BT paired via bluetooth. It will not do much without this device paired and worn by the user.

Much like your own personal EKG. This app plots each beat of the heart in real time to look for irregularities in one's pulse. At the press of the "Save RR values" button, all data for the session is saved into a text file that can be loaded into analysis software like Kubios.

This app was written with research in mind because other sport apps seem to smooth the data. We wanted to see every beat and every data point without averaging.

it seems that every functional beat-to-beat real time heart monitor [HM] available today integrates the pulses from 3-5 beats, smoothing the HR vs time graph. And there are other HM's that provide each beat but the graph is available only after the measurements are completed, i.e. after the fact.

Integration, averaging, smoothing of 3-5 pulses is done because ECG data has always been historically noisy and this filtering reduces the noise.
