  • Publication number: 20230190164
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide an ECG monitoring device that comprises a housing cable comprising a plurality of signal cables positioned therein and a set of electrodes positioned along the housing cable. Each of the set of electrodes may contact a particular location of a user without requiring any muscular activity of the user when the ECG monitoring device is connected to the user. The ECG monitoring device may further comprise a computing device positioned along the housing cable and operatively coupled to each of the four or more electrodes via a respective signal cable of the plurality of signal cables. The computing device may comprise a memory and a processing device operatively coupled to the memory, the processing device to perform, using the four or more electrodes, an electrocardiogram (ECG) of the user.

  • Publication number: 20230165502
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a 6-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring device that may acquire a 6-lead ECG, does not require the use of adhesives for electrodes, provides ECG data for a user on a near instantaneous basis, and provides an easy and non-invasive way for a user to take a 6-lead ECG on the fly. The ECG monitoring device may acquire leads I, II, and III. The ECG monitoring device may derive augmented limb leads to generate a 6-lead ECG and may subsequently generate a full 12-lead ECG. The ECG monitoring device may generate one or more diagnoses based on the 6-lead reading or the 12-lead set.

  • Publication number: 20230017105
    Abstract: A mobile electrocardiogram (ECG) device is described, comprising an electrode assembly comprising electrodes that sense heart-related signals when in contact with a body of a user, and produce electrical signals representing the sensed heart-related signals. The mobile ECG device further comprises a light-emitting device to facilitate an optimal placement of the electrode on the body of the user. The mobile ECG device further comprises a housing containing the electrode assembly, the converter assembly, the transmitter, and the light-emitting device. A first electrode of the electrode assembly forms a first side of the housing and comprises an opening through which the light-emitting device provides the UV light.

  • Patent number: 11471051
    Abstract: A mobile electrocardiogram (ECG) device is described, comprising an electrode assembly comprising electrodes, wherein the electrode assembly senses heart-related signals when in contact with a body of a user, and produces electrical signals representing the sensed heart-related signals. The mobile ECG device further comprises a converter assembly electrically connected to the electrode assembly, configured to convert the electrical signals to a modulated signal, wherein the modulated signal carries the electrical signals representing the sensed heart-related signals. The mobile ECG device further comprises a transmitter that transmits the modulated signal wirelessly to a computing device. The mobile ECG device further comprises a light-emitting device to facilitate an optimal placement of the electrode on the body of the user. The mobile ECG device further comprises a housing containing the electrode assembly, the converter assembly, the transmitter, and the light-emitting device.

  • Publication number: 20220304613
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a small form factor ECG monitoring device that can acquire 3 standard ECG leads including a V-lead, does not require the use of adhesives for electrodes, and provides ECG data for a user on a near instantaneous basis. The ECG monitoring device can acquire leads I, II, and V2 (or any other V lead). The addition of a V-lead not only provides an additional channel of ECG data, but also adds another orthogonal cardiac field plane (the horizontal plane) thanks to the reference point formed by leads I and II. The ECG monitoring device may derive the augmented limb leads and subsequently generate a full 12-lead ECG. The ECG monitoring device may generate one or more diagnoses based on the full 12-lead set. The ECG monitoring device may provide an easy and non-invasive way for a person to take an ECG on the fly.
