Case Study: Wireless Heart Monitoring

Heart surgery patients are encouraged to get out of bed and walk soon after their operations, yet must be continuously monitored for heart performance. One of the world’s largest providers of advanced medical technologies has made this especially practical with a wireless heart monitor that incorporates RFM WIT modules. The system, now widely deployed, allows recovering patients to seamlessly roam throughout a hospital to visit doctors and therapists, while monitor information is fed continuously to nursing stations via RFM SNAP wireless network access points.
