Abstract: 
The demand for portable health monitoring systems has grown rapidly in recent years due to the increasing prevalence of chronic diseases and the need for continuous health monitoring. This article introduces the development and implementation of a portable health monitoring system using photo plethysmography (PPG) and electrocardiogram (ECG) technologies. The system integrates the Node MCU ESP8266 microcontroller, AD8232 ECG sensor, and MAX30100 sensor to measure vital signs such as heart rate and blood oxygen saturation level. The proposed system provides a cost-effective and efficient solution for real-time health monitoring, enabling early detection of abnormalities and timely intervention. The feasibility and performance of the system were proven through experimental tests.
