A comprehensive 12 lead ECG - Monitoring from
Home
Designed for post-operative, post-MI clients and
for patients suffering from chronic heart desease (CHD) or for
clients who are otherwise 'anxious' about their heart
condition.
Home-use 12 Lead ECG A
portable and affordable 12 lead ECG machine with a 24
hour
interpretation and advice service. The
compact, palm size unit, measures and transmits
a
full 12 lead ECG giving the monitoring staff a far more comprehensive and
elaborate
additional tool with which picture a client's cardiac
condition. The ECG can be transmitted
via
any landline telphone and from anywhere in the
world
Upon
registration, the centre receives the client's medical
records which the client (or their GP)
update regularly. This together with the ability to call the centre - at any time -
and
to
describe cardiac symptoms and
to transmit a full 12 lead ECG, enables
effective
cardiac monitoring which can give clients the required reassurance
and advice.
Early diagnosis and treatment and
the ability to do it all from the comfort and convenience of home, is the
attraction of the system.
Hypertension
Millions suffer from hypertension, commonly known as high
blood pressure. Such a condition requires constant monitoring. We have a
special monitoring device which enables you to take your blood pressure
reading on a regular basis, at home or in your office.The
readings are transmitted discreetly and automatically to our Monitoring
Centre. If and when the readings indicate that certain parameters are
exceeded, the Centre will notify you or your GP or consultant so that
appropriate steps can be
taken.

Weight control monitoring --
For patients suffering from Congestive Heart Failure
(CHF)
- One of the manifestations of lungs filling with fluid,
is an increase in weight. Careful monitoring of weight gives early
warnings of potential problems, thus enabling physicians to
prescribe diuretic drugs early in treatment of the
condition. Patients
suffering from CHF may have their condition monitored from the comfort of home
by utilising our unique weight scales which
transmit weight (automatically and discreetly) to our centre. The
centre will monitor your weight and the trends and / or
deviations, will be transmitted on to your
physician.
