1. A physiologic sensor pod comprising:

  • a housing including a top surface, a bottom surface and a peripheral surface extending between the top and bottom surfaces;

    a first electrode on the bottom surface of the housing;

    a second electrode on the bottom surface of the housing and spaced apart from the first electrode;

    a battery within the housing;

    a battery charging circuit within the housing;

    an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor circuit within the housing, powered by the battery, and adapted to sense an ECG signal;

    switch circuitry within the housing and electrically coupled to the first and second electrodes; and

    a controller within the housing, powered by the battery, and adapted to control at least a portion of the switch circuitry;

    wherein when the switch circuitry is in a first configuration the first and second electrodes are connected to the battery charging circuit; and

    wherein when the switch circuitry is in a second configuration, the first electrode is connected to a first input of the ECG sensor circuit and the second electrode is connected to a second input of the ECG sensor circuit.
