Abstract:
Objective To design a wearable physiological monitoring system for acquiring and monitor-ing vital signs non-intrusively and concurrently.Methods All bio-sensors were embedded in an elastic shirt for detecting physiological parameters with wearable technology.A patented respiratory inductive plethysmography technology was used to measure respiratory function,two sensors were woven into the jerkin around the patient's chest and abdomen.A three-lead,single channel ECG measures heart rate,and a three-axis accelerometer records posture and activity level.An NTC thermometer embedded in the shirt measures the body temperature.Results An elastic jerkin with embedded sensors that collect and continuously monitor respiration,cardiac,temperature,posture and activity signals was fabricated.Conclusion This wearable physiological monitoring system can record multiple parameters non-intrusively and concurrently.It can act as an useful platform for further researches.
