An Innovative Wireless Telecardiological Monitoring System

Effective therapy in this area is usually no longer the problem. Defibrillators and sufficient medication have had revolutionary success in saving the lives of patients with heart disorders. Crucially, the biggest issue is the lack of diagnosis. So far, the standard is that even high risk patients only visit their physician every six months for a check-up. If the health situation worsens between visits, problems will not be identified until the symptoms become acute. Due to a prevalent fear of hospitals, many patients wait until their health condition develops into an unbearable situation. It is at this point that they would call the emergency service and be brought to the hospital, normally needing to remain there for days before becoming healthy enough to return home, thus costing the healthcare system a great deal.
