Telemedical
Monitoring is the ability to remotely capture and transmit medical
data for the purpose
of monitoring an individual’s condition. The main advantage of this
type of monitoring is that you, as a patient, can continue to report
your health to your physician from the comfort of your own home.
The
LifeguardSLU uses its exclusive MD Medi-care Device to allow certain
medical devices to transmit their data over regular phone lines.
This data can be sent directly to your doctor, so you won’t have to
leave the house. Some medical applications supported by the
LifeguardSLU interface are:
Cardiology:
Various ECG event recorders
available (single event, multi-event, multi-lead, pacemaker
follow-up)
Pulmonology:
Spirometer for measurement of
lung ventilatory capacity
Pulse Oxymeter for measurement of blood oxygen levels
