ECG Patch for Remote Patient Monitoring

China-based digital healthcare solutions manufacturer, Plus1health, has designed a wearable ECG monitoring system that helps individuals monitor their own heart health, while also supporting remote patient monitoring and telehealth applications. Plus1Health ECG Patch is a chest-worn device that measures vital signs including one channel ECG, heart rate, respiration rate . Without the user intervention, the device continuously checks for cardiac abnormal symptoms and if any are detected they are classified into 18 types of heart arrhythmias.

Comprising a lightweight wearable ECG tag incorporating a smartphone app and a Cloud-based platform,Plus1Health ECG Patch is designed to offer a simple and efficient mobile cardiac telemetry solution for patients and healthcare facilities. The Plus1Health ECG tag features an 9g, slim-profile adhesive patch allowing it to be placed on a patient’s chest for continuous monitoring. It is suitable for bedside monitoring or in place of an ECG Holter device. The wearable monitoring system provides ‘real time’ ECG/vital signs data.

In addition, users can share the recorded ECG with family and friends, while freeing themselves of worry about pain or side effects by eliminating the requirement for invasive testing. And in the current global environment , a wearable solution that checks the condition of people in their own homes and reports to remote healthcare professionals is beneficial.

Using Plus1Health-enabled Bluetooth connectivity, the analyzed ECG/vital signs data is wirelessly transmitted from the device to the user’s smartphone, where the iOS and Android app displays all the relevant heart health information.

The platform enables the continuous real-time monitoring of the ECG waveform and arrhythmia diagnosis information from different devices simultaneously on a single screen. Therefore able to oversee reports on the heart health of multiple patients simultaneously, can be used to monitor an at-risk person’s heart health on an ongoing basis to help reducing cardiac risk factors and provide early warning of problem.
