Abstract

Research conducted by the World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2018 demonstrated that the worldwide threat of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) has increased compared to previous years. CVDs are very dangerous: if timely treatment is not performed, these conditions could become irreversible and lead to sudden death. Prescriptive measures include physical exercises and monitoring of the heart rate (HR). Despite the existence of various HR monitoring devices (or HMDs), a major challenge remains their availability, particularly to people in lower-income countries. Unfortunately, it is also this segment of the population that is the most vulnerable to CVDs. Accordingly, this led the authors to propose the design for an easily constructible state-of-the-art HMD that attempts to provide a highly accessible, lower-cost, and long-lasting solution that would be more affordable and accessible to these low-income communities.
