A System for Cardioholter Applications with Ecg Transmission by Bluetooth

In this paper we present a new medical device for cardioholter applications intended to overcome the limitations actually present in the commercial devices and to advance the state of the art. In particular we propose a system for ECG transmission by Bluetooth, embedded in a digital cardioholter with multiple leads. The system has been designed, prototyped and tested at the Electronic Devices Laboratory (Electrical and Information Engineering Department) of Polytechnic University of Bari, Italy, within a biomedical researcher program, sponsored by Italian Government.
