A medical diagnosis and monitoring equipment has wireless electrodes, which are attached to the surface of the skin of the patient. The electrodes comprise a digital transmitting and receiving unit with antenna and microsensors. The electrodes can be used, among other things, for detecting EEG- and EKG- signals, as well as for monitoring body/breathing movements, the temperature, perspiration, etc. A preferred exemplified embodiment comprises an electrode comprising all functions in a semiconductor chip which, as an integrated circuit, is equipped with the respective sensor, sensor control, frequency generation, transmitting and receiving units, as well as with a transmission control unit. The antenna is arranged in this connection in the flexible electrode covering or directly in the chip.
A medical system for acquiring measured data, in particular for monitoring body functions, comprising:
A medical system for acquiring measured data, in particular for monitoring body functions, comprising:
An ECG sensor comprising a single electrode with at least three tapping points.
An ECG measurement system including an ECG reference signal resulting from at least two ECG sensors each having at least two electrode pins wherein one of the electrode pins of each ECG sensor is a reference pin that is galvanically connected to the reference electrode pin of at least one other ECG sensor.
A wireless ECG measurement system comprising:
