Abstract :
In this article there are described types and applications of sensors for diagnostic and maintenance planning in healthcare applications. During the recent years, there was a rapid growth in the development of maintenance telemedicine systems and monitoring devices for patients with chronical diseases and those requiring continuous telemonitoring treatments. The aim of this work was the design sensors for bioelectrical measurement in long term applications. The telemetric system proposal lied in the selection of suitable biological parameters that preferably testified about an actual physical and psychical state of men.
