Abstract:
Physiological monitoring can be provided through a lightweight wearable monitor that includes two components, a flexible extended wear electrode patch and a reusable monitor recorder that removably snaps into a receptacle on the electrode patch. The wearable monitor sits centrally (in the midline) on the patient's chest along the sternum oriented top-to-bottom. The placement of the wearable monitor in a location at the sternal midline, with its unique narrow “hourglass”-like shape, significantly improves the ability of the wearable monitor to cutaneously sense cardiac electrical potential signals, particularly the P-wave and, to a lesser extent, the QRS interval signals indicating ventricular activity in the ECG waveforms. Additionally, the monitor recorder includes an ECG sensing circuit that measures raw cutaneous electrical signals and performs signal processing prior to outputting the processed signals for sampling and storage.

Claim (Index 1):
A monitor recorder optimized for electrocardiographic potential processing, comprising:\n a housing adapted to be coupled to at least one electrocardiographic electrode; and an electronic circuitry provided within the housing and comprising:\n an electrocardiographic front end circuit under the control of a low-power microcontroller and configured to sense electrocardiographic potentials through the at least one electrocardiographic electrode and to output electrocardiographic signals representative of cardiac activation wave front amplitudes, the electrocardiographic front end circuit comprising an operational amplifier and an AC coupling capacitor through which a current of the sensed electrocardiographic potentials sequentially passes, wherein the operational amplifier amplifies the current; \n the low-power microcontroller operable to execute over an extended period under modular micro program control as specified in firmware and further operable to acquire samples of the output electrocardiographic signals; and \n a non-volatile memory electrically interfaced with the microcontroller and operable to continuously store the samples of the electrocardiographic signals throughout the extended period.
