Abstract :
Continuous monitoring and analysis of vital parameters like SO2, heart frequency, breathing frequency is important for the prevention and management of cardiac heart failure. The cardiac sentinel allows continuous monitoring and recording of these parameters and automatic transmission of the collected data to the clinical server via an inbuilt GSM modem.
