Abstract

A device and method for user's ECG self monitoring and real time analysis are provided. The device comprises: (a) a sensing element and a processing element for recording and storing a first ECG signal from the user during a first time interval and recording a second ECG signal from the same user during a second time interval; (b) a comparing element for comparing the second ECG signal to the first ECG signal; (c) a logical decision element for making a logical decision based on the comparison and providing a recommendation to the user of a step he should take. According to another embodiment, the device includes: (a) ten sensing elements and a processing element for simultaneously recording twelve ECG signals from the user during a first time interval and simultaneously recording twelve ECG signals from the user during a second time interval; (b) a comparing element for comparing each of the ECG signals recorded during the second time interval to a respective ECG signal recorded during the first time interval so as to provide twelve delta values; (c) a logical decision element for making a logical decision based on the delta values and providing a recommendation to the user of a step he should take.
