Arm and wrist surface potential mapping for wearable ECG rhythm recording devices: a pilot clinical study
This research is funded from charitable trusts (McGrath-Trust/Ulster Garden Villages) which helped establish our Centre for Advanced Cardiovascular Research and is part supported by an ESRC project “Design for Ageing Well” (RES/353/25/0004) and by Southern Health & Social Care Trust (R&D Research Directors Fund). It reports work on developing a novel practical device for long term ECG monitoring based on dry non-irritant skin contact and patient comfortable far field electrode locations. Pilot results indicate feasibility with acceptable recordings in up 88% for certain comfortable-to-wear-on remote sites. This work was presented as invited Lecture at University of Zagreb, Human-Oriented-Technologies-Laboratory (http://hotlab.fer.hr/).
