PREAMBLE OF THE DESCRIPTION
The following specification describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be
performed:
Page No. 1/19
Field of the Invention:
[0001] The present invention relates to a smart wearable ECG monitoring system and method
thereof.
[0002] More particularly the invention relates to a smart wearable ECG monitoring system
and method that includes a self-administrable ECG-belt which can be utilized even at
home-level.
Background of the invention:
[0003] People at cardiac risk and heart patients need to regularly check their ECG to
moderate their health by their doctor. In addition, in an unlikely event when a person
faces chest pain or other related symptoms, sharing the medical-grade 12-Lead ECG
results with their doctors without wasting any time can be lifesaving. The current 12-Lead
ECG monitoring solution is complicated and requires expert attention. In the current
scenario, regularly going to hospitals, clinics, or radiology labs for regular ECG-checkup
is a tedious task. In case of any cardiac emergency, getting the ECG report is
time-consuming which may result in life-threatening events.
[0004] A medical-grade 12-lead ECG is measured using 10-Leads i.e. V1, V2, V3, V4, V5,
V6, RA, LA, RL, LL. A general ECG measuring system is illustrated in Figure 1a. It has
various electrodes placed on the body of the user. Here, ten electrodes in a 12-lead ECG
may comprise RA (101) on the right arm, avoiding thick muscle; LA(102) in the same
location where RA is placed on upper side of the left arm in a traditional case; RL(103)
on the upper side of the right leg, the lower end of medial aspect of calf muscle; LL (104)
in the same location where RL is placed, but on the left leg; V1 (105) in the fourth
intercostal space just to the right of the sternum (breastbone); V2 (106) in the fourth
Page No. 2/19
intercostal space just to the left of the sternum. V3 (107) between leads V2 (106) and V4
(108); V4 (108) in the fifth intercostal space in the midclavicular line; V5 (109)
horizontally even with V4 (108), in the left anterior axillary line; V6 (110) horizontally
even with V4 (108) and V5 (109) in the midaxillary line.
[0005] In the previous solution, independent cables consisting of 10 electrodes are placed on
the human body at desired locations by a clinical operator. Performing the same task
every time is tedious and time-consuming. In addition, there are possibilities of
misplacement of these electrodes being a manual activity. The problem with previous
technology is that they are not flexible in use and not easily wearable and self-usable.
[0006] A US granted patent US8954129B1 provides an electrode wearable or harness
permits for easy, quick, and unsupervised administration or self-administration of a
resting 12-or-more-lead ECG. The disclosure claims various advantageous features of the
electrode wearable or harness include: inflatable or padded cushions at the lateral sides of
the torso that function to press LA and RA electrodes mounted on the cushions against the
downward-resting arms of the subject, permitting good electrode abutment with distal
electrode placement without the need for adhesives, straps, bands, bracelets, or gloves on
the arms; padding over the sternum to avoid tenting in the V1, V2, V3 and V3R
electrodes whenever present, easy-to-don, one-piece design with an adjustable single
point of connection and an adjustable shoulder strap; Lund or modified Lund placement;
dry electrodes; and various other features. Methods of use are also described. However,
the belt and the method may be cumbersome and not allow user an accurate indication of
electrode misplacement. Also the ruggedness of the system may be insufficient.
[0007] A granted EP patent EP1942799B1 claims to disclose: in one embodiment, provide
an improved wearable or garment system for monitoring at least one physiological event
Page No. 3/19
or physiological characteristic of a wearer. The wearable or garment includes at least one
substantially non-electrically conductive stretch-recovery yarn and at least three
conductive electrodes of, for example, stretch-recovery electrically conductive yarns
integrated with the wearable device. Also included in the wearable systems is at least one
means for conducting electrical signals associated with at least one physiological event or
physiological characteristic of the wearer from the garment to an external means. The
external means can, for example, be used to signal pre-process, preamplify, amplify,
process, display, filter, analyze, alarm and/or store electrical signals associated with at
least one physiological event or physiological characteristic of the wearer. However, use
by various body shapes and ease and indication of correct placement of various electrodes
may not be accurately provided.
[0008] Therefore, there is a need for a smart wearable ECG monitoring system that includes
a self-administrable ECG belt that can be utilized at the home level easily and self-driven.
The method of monitoring medical-grade 12-Lead ECG data can be shared with the
concerned doctor via a smartphone app, SMS, email, etc.
