Key result
A new concept for a wireless and wearable ECG sensor was described for continuous arrhythmia monitoring and follow-up of critical patients in a tele-home-care setting.
This paper describes a conceptual wireless wearable ECG system designed for continuous home monitoring to detect rare cardiac arrhythmias.
Concept supports tele-home arrhythmia monitoring development; leaves open prospective validation before clinical use.
New wireless technology for tele-home-care purposes gives new possibilities for monitoring of vital parameters with wearable biomedical sensors, and will give the patient the freedom to be mobile and still be under continuously monitoring and thereby to better quality of patient care. This paper describes a new concept for wireless and wearable electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor transmitting signals to a diagnostic station at the hospital, and this concept is intended for detecting rarely occurrences of cardiac arrhythmias and to follow up critical patients from their home while they are carrying out daily activities.
