Patent ID: 8301236

Claim:
A system for use by a patient having access to a cellular network comprising: a body sensor device adapted to be worn by the patient and having a sensor circuit, a sensor processor, a sensor storage memory and a sensor transmitter, wherein the sensor circuit detects an analog full disclosure ECG signal of the patient, wherein the sensor processor stores full disclosure ECG data corresponding to the detected analog signal in the sensor storage memory, and wherein the sensor transmitter transmits a full disclosure ECG signal including the full disclosure ECG data stored in the sensor storage memory; a handheld device adapted to be carried by the patient and having a handheld storage memory, a handheld processor, a handheld receiver and a handheld transmitter, wherein the handheld receiver receives the full disclosure ECG signal, wherein the handheld processor stores the full disclosure ECG data included in the received full disclosure ECG signal in the handheld storage memory, and wherein the handheld transmitter transmits a packet signal including the full disclosure ECG data stored in the handheld storage memory via the cellular network; a data center remote from the patient and having a data center receiver, a data center processor and a data center storage memory, wherein the data center receiver receives the packet signal, wherein the data center processor stores the full disclosure ECG data included in the received packet signal in the data center storage memory, and wherein the data center processor analyzes the full disclosure ECG data stored in the data center storage memory to identify any anomalies in the full disclosure ECG data stored in the data center storage memory; a monitoring center linked to the data center and having a technician port accessible by a technician device for evaluating the full disclosure ECG data stored in the data center storage memory, for considering any identified anomalies and for providing reports, and a physician port accessible by a physician for viewing provided technician reports and for viewing the full disclosure ECG data stored in the data center storage memory, whereby the system has the ability to telemeter full disclosure ECG data from remote locations.
