May support remote arrhythmia monitoring in mobile patients; leaves open prospective validation before clinical adoption.
We have developed and benchmarked real-time collection methods that exploit digital, packet-switched telephony services available in metropolitan areas. The Arrhythmia monitoring system collects real-time electrocardiogram signals from a mobile or homebound patient, and combines them with GPS location data, and transmits this information to a remote station for display and monitoring.
