摘要:A portable monitoring system for recognizing wheeze in lung sounds can detect the occurrence of wheeze from the neck of an asthmatic. The portable monitoring system comprises an acoustic sensor, a signal processor and a wireless signal transmission module, a remote analyzer and an alarm generator. The acoustic sensor is placed next to the windpipe of the asthmatic to collect the acoustic signals when he breathes. The signal processor and remote analyzer analyze the acoustic signals to recognize whether the wheeze, in the form of specified signals, exists. If the wheeze is found, the wireless signal transmission module or the remote analyzer directly instructs the alarm generator to generate an alarm so as to notify someone to give medical treatment to the asthmatic.
