  • Publication number: 20230012931
    Abstract: An electrocardiogram recording device can include a housing, a clip, a modem, and an antenna. The housing can contain RF shielding, which can be arranged to minimize RF signal transmissions in one direction while not limiting RF signal transmission in an opposite direction. The clip can be attached to the housing. An antenna can be integrated within the clip. The modem can be a cellular data modem.

  • Publication number: 20180317797
    Abstract: An electrode patch including a patch body and a plurality of electrodes attached to the patch body for sensing EKG signals. The electrode patch also includes at least one perforation on the patch body to help define multiple portions of patch body. Each portion of the patch body is attached to one of the plurality of electrodes. The electrode patch may be secured to a body of a patient in an intact configuration having each portion of the patch body connected together or in a separated configuration having at least one portion separated from the other portions of the patch body in order to accommodate different sizes and shapes of patients.

  • Patent number: 9237859
    Abstract: A system and method for a multi-function remote ambulatory cardiac monitoring system. The system includes a microprocessor for controlling the remote ambulatory cardiac monitoring system and a non-transitory computer readable medium associated with the microprocessor. The non-transitory computer readable medium includes instructions to perform one of the following modes: EKG mode, ECG Holter mode, or MCT/Event mode. The system also includes a controller connected to the microprocessor. The controller initiates or switches the functionality of the remote ambulatory cardiac monitoring system by causing the microprocessor to initiate one of the EKG mode, ECG Holter mode, or MCT/Event mode.

  • Patent number: 8972000
    Abstract: A multi-function health monitor is capable of performing a resting 12-lead ECG test, an ECG stress test, a 24-hour Holter monitor evaluation and or a 30-day MCT monitoring. Using only 3 electrodes, the multifunction health monitor derives 6 channels (Limb leads & Augmented leads) of data with the noise cancellation (ground) effect of a virtual dynamic RL electrode. An electrode resistivity measurement system quantifies and may compensate for increasing resistance the electrodes and the patient that results from the length of time the electrodes are installed on a patient.

An electrode resistivity measurement system quantifies and may compensate for increasing resistance the electrodes and the patient that results from the length of time the electrodes are installed on a patient. The multi-function health monitor can provide data analysis through the gate array as the data is acquired. Data may also be stored for remote analysis as well as for transmission to remote stations upon occurrence of one or more threshold events. Parameters for threshold events may be adjusted remotely to obviate the need for a patient to travel for system adjustment.

  • Publication number: 20060111641
    Abstract: An ICG control system for improved performance of Impedance Cardiography and improved reporting of the hemodynamic parameters obtained during an Impedance Cardiography (ICG) session. When the ICG control system is used, impedance waveforms, ECG Waveforms, and hemodynamic parameters are recorded continuously for each session. The parameters and/or pictorial representations are stored in a computer memory for recall, and the parameters may be recalled in formats particularly conducive to assessing and managing a patient's hemodynamic status.
