  • Title: The wireless monitoring of vital parameters: a design study.
    Author: Becker J, Gebauer D, Maier-Hein L, Schwaibold M, Schöchlin J, Bolz A.
    Journal: Biomed Tech (Berl); 2002; 47 Suppl 1 Pt 2():851-3. PubMed ID: 12465322.
    Abstract:
    This project shows the way vital parameters can be transmitted and visualized with no connecting cables necessary to the PDA. This was realized using a sensor developed with an integrated Bluetooth interface and a PDA, also equipped with Bluetooth. This radio connection can span up to 10 m, and parameters, such as pulse frequency, oxygen saturation in blood, ECG measurements and plethysmograms, can be transmitted. Using the software introduced in this work, the transmitted measurements can be displayed numerically or graphically on the PDA. The software simultaneously checks for any limits and sends a warning message if these limits are exceeded. All received data are additionally documented.
