摘要:
An arrangement for patient monitoring. The arrangement includes at least one body sensor to detect a physiological parameter as body signal data and at least one of a body signal processing unit connected to the body sensor for processing body signal data, and a therapy device designed to act on the patient. In addition, the arrangement includes a monitoring center having a signal field strength evaluation means, a mobile phone terminal designed to transmit the data from at least one of the body signal processing unit and the therapy device to the monitoring center and from the monitoring center to the therapy device, and a cellular mobile phone network. The mobile phone terminal is operable in the cellular mobile phone network. The arrangement further includes a base station coordinate storage unit for storage of coordinate data and a mobile phone exchange linked to the base station coordinate storage unit for the reception of position data of the mobile phone terminal. The signal field strength evaluation means is utilized for evaluating signal field strength data reflecting the distance of the mobile phone terminal from at least one base station together with coordinate data of at least one active base station of the mobile phone network in order to determine the whereabouts of the patient.
摘要:
A patient monitoring system (1) is provided with at least one body sensor (2a) for measuring a physiological parameter, as well as with a body signal processing unit (3) connected downstream from the former and/or a therapy device (2) designed to act on the patient (P), and a mobile radiotelephone end unit (7) operable in a cellular mobile radiotelephone network (1B) for transmitting data from the body signal processing unit or the therapy device to a central monitoring station (1C) and/or from the central monitoring station to the therapy device. A base station coordinate memory unit (13; 13′) and a locator unit (12; 12.1′ through 12.3′) connected to the former serves for the rough determination of the location of the patient based on location information obtained from the current base station connection of the mobile radiotelephone end unit in the mobile radiotelephone network. For the fine position determination, a direction-finding transmitter (300) that sends out a direction-finding signal is provided in the mobile radiotelephone end unit (7). A separate direction-finding device (310) serves for the fine tracking of the direction-finding signal.

摘要:
An electromedical implant (1), in particular a cardiac pacemaker, comprising a telemetry device at least for the communication of data to an external apparatus (2), which includes a transmitting device with a transmitter, wherein the transmitter includes an oscillator comprising a first transistor (58) and a resonator (60), and a second transistor (59) forming a buffer stage and an antenna driver.
摘要:
A method of after-care in relation to patients with at least one electromedical implant. Data is transmitted from the implant to an external apparatus providing information for an examining clinician on the occasion of an after-care examination of the patient in an after-care arrangement. In an after-care interrogation up-to-date available data of the implant are interrogated and sent for output to corresponding output means, the data interrogation operation being effected prior to the after-care examination automatically after the patient enters an interrogation region of the after-care arrangement.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for data transmission between an electromedical implant having a first transmitter/receiver unit, such as a cardiological implant, and an associated external apparatus having a second transmitter/receiver unit. Data transmission begins with a triggering signal which is sent by the first transmitter/receiver unit in normal operation in predeterminable first intervals. Reception readiness of the first transmitter/receiver unit is maintained after emission of the triggering signal for a second time interval which is shorter than the first time interval.
摘要:
A radio-controlled timepiece comprises an antenna in the form of a core on which a coil is mounted. The core includes a hole spaced from the coil and defining an axis oriented perpendicular to the coil axis. A printed circuit board is disposed in the hole such that electrically conductive tracks thereof are arranged in a plane lying within a center plane of the core.
摘要:
A method of monitoring patients with at least one electromedical implant, in which at least one first data transmission is effected between the implant provided with a first transmitting/receiving device and at least one external apparatus provided with a second transmitting/receiving device. At least first data are transmitted from the implant to the external apparatus and at least one second data transmission is effected between the external apparatus and at least one central storage arrangement for the storage of first data, by a telecommunication connection which is at least partially made by way of a mobile radio network. The transmission at least of the first data to the central storage arrangement is effected by way of the portion, formed by the mobile radio network, of the telecommunication connection in the form of at least one SM-string (Short Message String).
摘要:
An electromedical implant (1), in particular a cardiac pacemaker, having a close-range telemetry device for data exchange with an external apparatus (2), which includes at least a close-range antenna (47) and a close-range transmitter/receiver unit with a close-range transmitter (44), a telemetry unit (45) connected thereto and an antenna interface device (46) which is connected to the telemetry unit (45) and by way of which the close-range antenna (47) is connected to the close-range transmitter/receiver unit, wherein there is provided a long-range transmitter (48) connected to the telemetry unit (45) to provide a long-range telemetry device.
