Integrated mobile electrocardiography

Modern mobile electrocardiographic equipment converges various technologies which contribute to the speed of reaction in critical situations and contributes to the quality of life of the patient. Such convergence is valuable, but solutions are still immature and there are certain problems which should be solved before full implementation. This article describes one solution of integrated mobile electrocardiograph which comprises mobile ECG, global positioning system, UMTS/GPRS transfer of data and Web services for connection of distributed components. The system records electrocardiogram, detects rhythm anomalies and immediately alerts doctor sending critical ECG segment and location of the patient. The doctor can contact the patient and send nearest ambulance by the optimal route. The fact that system works in real time and locates the patient might be crucial in certain situations. It has excellent potential, but requires technical and organizational infrastructure which will support its functioning.
