Electrocardiograph with chest assembly, waterproof housing, recording module and wireless transceiver
First Claim
1. A electrocardiograph having a chest assembly intended to be applied to the body of a patient in the chest region and an electronic unit provided with a recording module and with a wireless transceiver module,wherein said chest assembly further comprises a plurality of electrodes configured to be connected to the body of a patient for the recording of an electrocardiogram and respective electrical wires connecting each electrode to said electronic unit, the chest assembly further comprising a housing to which said electrical wires are respectively fixed, and first electrical terminals of the wires being restrained to said housing,wherein said housing is provided with a contact interface configured to be electrically connected to the first electrical terminals, the contact interface comprising a plurality of second electrical terminals protruding outwards said housing and arranged according to a pattern corresponding to the pattern of first electrical terminals of the wires, the number of the second electrical terminals corresponding to the number of the first electrical terminals;
- wherein the electronic unit is enclosed in a watertight casing, is configured to be removably fitted in the housing and comprises a Hall-effect magnetic sensor configured to selectively allow, when activated by a magnet, the electronic unit to mark an electrocardiogram, to start and stop recording of an electrocardiogram and/or to send a record of an electrocardiogram to a telecommunications network, andwherein the electrocardiograph further comprises a magnet, separated from said housing, for the activation of said Hall-effect magnetic sensor when placed from the outside in proximity to said housing, said magnet being mounted on a supporting member configured to be worn by a patient during a monitoring period.

Abstract
A electrocardiograph having a chest assembly intended to be applied to the chest region of a patient and an electronic unit is provided, with a recording module and with a wireless transceiver module. The chest assembly has a plurality of electrodes configured to be connected to the patient'"'"'s body for the recording of an electrocardiogram and respective electrical wires connecting each electrode to the electronic unit. The chest assembly further includes a housing to which the electrical wires are respectively fixed. The electronic unit has a Hall-effect magnetic sensor configured to selectively allow it to mark, to start, stop, record and send an electrocardiogram to a telecommunications network. The electrocardiograph further includes a magnet mounted on a supporting member configured to be worn by a patient to activate the Hall-effect magnetic sensor.
