Wireless medical telemetry devices that operate on WMTS frequencies transmit patient health data via a radio link to a remote location, such as a nurses' station, equipped with a specialized radio receiver. The WMTS enhances the ability of health care providers to offer high quality and cost-effective care to patients with acute and chronic health care needs. It gives patients greater mobility and increased comfort by freeing them from the need to be connected to hospital equipment that would otherwise be required to monitor their condition.
