A system for providing a standard electrocardiogram (ECG) signal for a human body using contactless ECG sensors for outputting to exiting medical equipment or for storage or viewing on a remote device. The system comprises a digital processing module (DPM) adapted to connect to an array of contactless ECG sensors provided in a fabric or the like. A selection mechanism is embedded into the DPM which allows the DPM to identify body parts using the ECG signals of the different ECG sensors and select for each body part the best sensor lead. The DPM may then produce the standard ECG signal using the selected ECG signals for the different body parts detected. The system is adapted to continuously re-examine the selection to ensure that the best leads are selected for a given body part following a movement of the body part, thereby, allowing for continuous and un-interrupted ECG monitoring of the patient.
A method for generating electrocardiogram (ECG) signals for a human body using contactless ECG sensors, the method comprising:
A device for generating electrocardiogram (ECG) signals for a human body, the device comprising a processor adapted to operably connect to a sensor array including a plurality of contactless ECG sensors to receive a plurality of contactless ECG signals for the human body, the processor being adapted to detect one or more body parts in close proximity of the sensor array, and select for the detected body parts contactless ECG sensors having the highest signal quality, the processor being adapted to produce a standard ECG signal based on the contactless ECG signals received from the selected contactless ECG sensors associated with the detected body parts.
