Heartbeat monitoring system / Mohd Marwan Othman

Our heart normally beats in a regular rhythm and rate that is just right for the work our body is doing at any moment. The heart is a pump made up by four chambers: two upper chambers (atria) and two lower chambers (ventricles). It is powered by an electrical system that puts out pulses in a regular...
