PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
CardioNet merges patient monitoring, wireless communications,
and the Internet to allow targeted cardiac rhythm related problems
to be identified, quantified, and communicated to the prescribing
physician in a timely and efficient manner.
The CardioNet System is comprised of a sensor, monitor, and base.
The lightweight sensor is worn by the patient on a lanyard or belt
clip, it continuously records two channels of ECG, and transmits the
ECG by a radio frequency (RF) link to the monitor. The sensor is
powered by a disposable alkaline battery, which typically lasts 24-36
hours. While using the sensor, the patient is required to wear (3)
disposable electrodes to record their ECG.
The monitor is approximately the size of a PDA device. It has a
powerful microprocessor, extensive memory, imbedded algorithm,
LCD display, wireless modem, and a global positioning system
(GPS). The monitor is powered by a rechargeable lithium battery,
which typically lasts 18 hours.
The monitor’s microprocessor is programmed to identify cardiac
rhythm problems within guidelines established by the prescribing
physician. The algorithm detection parameters and physician
notification criteria are individualized for each patient and physician.
