Abstract

This paper introduces a novel mobile ECG telemonitoring system. By means of CDMA1x (GPSOne) mobile telecommunication network, the system can perform "full time and space" monitoring of human ECG signal, and once the signal of the monitored subject departed from its normal ranges, the hospital ECG monitoring center can further localize his/her geographical position and give rescue in the first time. Another feature of the system is its high anti-interference capability. In order to reduce 50 Hz and RF interferences during mobile monitoring, which are usual much serious than conventional hospital monitoring, a new active recording technology was proposed and an active ECG recording electrode was designed. The system has passed the clinical test and used in China
