Abstract

A sudden heart attack prevention method using an electrocardiogram (ECG) is provided. The method includes obtaining a digital ECG electrical signal, generating digital ECG (X, Y) pattern information by processing the digital ECG electrical signal, sensing whether the digital ECG (X, Y) pattern information deviates from a normal condition, when the digital ECG (X, Y) pattern information deviates from the normal condition, comparing the digital ECG (X, Y) pattern information and an abnormality symptom type, and when it is determined that the digital ECG (X, Y) pattern information is a heart attack presymptom, informing an acquaintance and a hospital of the digital ECG (X, Y) pattern information. According to a configuration of the present invention, when a sudden heart attack occurs, first-aid treatment can be performed without missing the so-called “golden time.”
