The latest reports, the United Kingdom doctors are testing a way to track patients, heart rate, body temperature and respiration of the "digital plaster", this device can be used in patients with a vision to the doctor sends an alert to doctors to quickly control the condition, but also can save a lot of medical costs.
The device consists of Imperial College London, United Kingdom for the researchers, is currently conducting experiments United Kingdom Saint Marys hospital.
Researchers make healthy volunteers equipped with these devices, to understand the sustainability of the collected data, get accurate physiological data are adequate, etc. Research results will be published next month.The project's Chief Scientist, Imperial College London, Institute of biomedical engineering? Thomas, Chris said, such as the "digital plaster" this device can help the doctor at home monitoring of patients, to solve problems in advance, but this new device is 8 years of painstaking work.
They also research and development can measure blood pressure and other key signal semiconductors.It is understood that this breakthrough technology and mobile device is a considerable chip sensor size and equipped with a traceable ECG heart activity, as well as the box used to monitor respiratory condition of thermometers and motion sensor, has a light, low energy consumption, portable, etc., can be 24 hour monitoring of patient's condition.
