IFIS # 14: 1. The Invention
- The problem to be
solved: The currently available devices
controlling the electrical activity of the heart
can be used only in health care facilities
because of their size, price and special field of
application. In addition, the results of the
measurements of the currently available devices
usually do not give any information to the person
under investigation. Moreover, the currently
available portable devices are very expensive
ones, and their data can be utilized only
periodically. At present time, an unexpensive
device of small size, which gives easilily
interpretable signals for everybody, is not on
the market.
- Definition: A
pocket size battery operated device for
monitoring the main electric impulse of the
heart.
- Presentation: The device is
functioning with a standard size 9 V battery. The
main task of the heart-rate monitor device to
detect the biggest electrical impulse (R-wave)
generated by the heart and to show the actual
heart-rate by means of light and voice. detects
heart-rate through three electrodes. The
heart-rate monitoring activity the device is based
on the duration of the R-R interval, and it shows
the actual heart-rate on a special LED alignment,
setting by 0.2 secretary. The device is suitable
for alarm operation in the case of heart rate
different from normal heart-rate domain by
setting the heart-rate frequency limits in
advance.
- Application:
- For the medical health care and service
personnel in case of heart rhythm disturbances,
heart-rate changes, etc. For detection and
analysis.
- For the patients:
any change in the heart-rate can be easily
detected by a patient due to the direct
observation of the voice or the lights of the
heart rate monitor. This observation can be
helpfull in further treatment of the patient by
the doctors.
- For the healthy:
alpinists, sportsmen /fitness/, hikers, etc. For
self control of their heart-rate.
- During
rehabilitation, posttraumatic conditions, during
patient transport, etc., especially if a change
in the heart-rate is expected.
- Advantages: The device is of
small size, unexpensive, portable, and easy to
handle. The change in the heart-rate can be
easily detected on the coloured LED-diodes, the
beeper -voice- can be switched on and off. If the
heart-rate exceeds the upper or the lower
heart-rate limits, the heart-rate monitor starts
to alarm.
- Stage of
development: Product.
- Documentation
available: yes.
