Objective:
A wearable wireless chest patch monitoring terminal is designed to realize the acquisition, processing, and wireless transmission of ECG, respiration, and body temperature signals.
Methods:
The analog front-end ADS1292R, which integrates respiratory impedance and ECG front-end, is utilized to collect human ECG and respiratory signals. The body temperature is collected using a low-power, high-precision digital temperature sensor MAX30208. A filter algorithm for signal processing and wireless transmission is designed through a low-power nRF52840 Bluetooth SoC with an Arm Cortex-M4F kernel.
Results:
The experimental results show that the designed monitoring terminal can monitor the ECG, respiration, and body temperature parameters of the human body in real-time and send the monitoring results via Bluetooth, with a continuous working time of more than 13 hours.
Conclusion:
The wearable wireless chest patch monitoring terminal features good portability, long standby time, and high measurement accuracy, and it has promising application prospects in the fields of family health monitoring, mobile medical treatment, and smart healthcare.

Equipments Used To Measure Blood Pressure
This invasive approach involves cannulating a peripheral artery. During each cardiac contraction, pressure generates mechanical motion within the catheter, transmitted through rigid, fluid-filled tubing to a transducer. This transducer converts mechanical motion into electrical signals displayed as waveforms on a monitor. An automatic flushing system prevents blood backflow. Due to the potential risk of unexpected arterial blood loss, this method is primarily used in intensive...
