[The Technical Innovation of Medical Engineering and Application Development in POCT Devices.]
Abstract:
Medical doctors have been utilizing POCT devices at POC sites (ER, ICU, and operation rooms). Now, POCT devices are used by health care professionals in the physician's office and also for home healthcare. Home healthcare (welfare/nursing care) is a focus area of the MHLW initiative to develop healthcare in order to resolve the "2025 problem". The role of POCT is important in resolving this issue.

Holter Monitor: 24-Hour Monitoring
2.9K
Holter monitoring is a continuous electrocardiography (ECG) recording that tracks the heart's electrical activity over an extended period, generally 24 to 48 hours. This noninvasive diagnostic tool detects irregular heart rhythms that may not be captured during a standard ECG performed in a clinical setting.DeviceThe Holter monitor is a portable, small device connected to several electrodes on the patient's chest. These electrodes detect the heart's electrical signals and transmit them to the...
