Abstract
A method of measuring bioelectric signals of a patient having an axis extending from the patient's head to the patient's feet includes attaching a patch to the patient's skin. The patch may include a first electrode and a second electrode spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the patch. The patch may be attached such that the longitudinal axis of the patch is generally aligned with the axis of the patient. The method may also include attaching a third electrode to the patient's skin, and measuring bioelectric signals of the patient using the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode.
Claims20
A method of measuring bioelectric signals of a patient having an axis extending from the patient's head to the patient's feet, comprising:
- attaching a patch to the patient's skin at a first location, the patch including a first electrode and a second electrode spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the patch, the patch being attached such that the longitudinal axis of the patch is generally aligned with the axis of the patient, wherein the first location is under an arm of the patient;
- attaching a third electrode to the patient's skin at a second location, wherein the third electrode is separate from the patch, and the second location is different from the first location;
- and
- measuring bioelectric signals of the patient using the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode.
A method of measuring ECG signals of a patient including an axis extending from the patient's head to the patient's feet, comprising:
- attaching a patch under the left armpit in the patient's thoracic region, the patch including a first electrode and a second electrode spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the patch, the patch being attached such that the longitudinal axis is generally aligned with the axis of the patient;
- attaching a third electrode to a chest of the patient, wherein the third electrode is separate from the patch;
- and
- measuring ECG signals using the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode.
A method of measuring bioelectric signals of a patient having an axis extending from the patient's head to the patient's feet, comprising:
- attaching a patch to the patient's skin under an arm, the patch including a first electrode and a second electrode spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the patch, the patch being attached such that the longitudinal axis of the patch is generally aligned with the axis of the patient;
- attaching a third electrode to the patient's skin above the patient's heart, wherein the third electrode is separate from the patch;
- and
- measuring bioelectric signals of the patient using the first electrode, the second electrode, and the third electrode.
