The elements provided include a miniaturised short-range body-worn wireless monitor with long battery life, on-board intelligence to monitor for and trigger on medical events such as arrhythmias. Also available is a matching belt-worn device using cellular links to send data immediately to the clinician. It has non-irritant, easy to apply patch electrodes for high-quality collection of vital signs.

Examples of products developed from this platform include instantaneous Holter monitors, in-hospital multiple vital signs monitors and pulse-wave velocity screeners.
