System and method for wireless generation of standard ECG leads and an ECG sensing unit therefor
First Claim
1. system for wireless generation of at least one standard ECG lead, comprisinga plurality of electrodes for application to a subject at separate points thereof, said plurality of electrodes being grouped into a first group and a second group;
- connections allowing physical and electrical connection and disconnection of electrodes of said first group of electrodes with each other and from each other;
a remote receiver station;
a generator for generating a standard ECG lead from signals detected by said first group of said plurality of electrodes;
a plurality of wireless ECG sensing units each comprising;
a radio module for communication with said remote receiver station, andat least three non-linearly arranged and closely located electrodes belonging to said second group of said plurality of electrodes, wherein said at least three non-linearly arranged and closely located electrodes are arranged for detecting two local bipolar signals,wherein each of said wireless ECG sensing units is arranged to generate at least two non-standard ECG signals from said bipolar signals, andwherein said radio module of each of said wireless ECG sensing units is arranged for wireless transferring of said non-standard ECG signals to said remote receiver station,wherein the system further comprises a computation module in said remote receiver station for calculation of a transform synthesizing said generated standard ECG lead from at least two of said non-standard ECG signals,wherein said computation module is further arranged to synthesize said standard ECG lead from said non-standard ECG signals solely using said transform following a disconnection of electrodes of said first group of electrodes from each other,whereby said at least one standard ECG lead is wireless generated by said synthesizing following the disconnection of electrodes of said first group of electrodes from each other.

Abstract
A system for wireless generation of at least one standard ECG lead comprises a plurality of electrodes for application to a subject at separate points thereof and a remote receiver station for generating at least one standard ECG lead from signals detected by a first group of said plurality of electrodes. The system further comprises a wireless sensing unit for generating at least two non-standard ECG signals from bipolar signals detected by a second group of the plurality of electrodes, a processor in the remote receiver station for calculation of a transform synthesizing each generated standard ECG lead from at least two of the non-standard ECG signals, a disconnection unit for disconnection of the first group of electrodes from the subject following the calculation, and a transfer unit for wireless transferring of the non-standard ECG signals to the remote receiver station following the disconnection of the first group of electrodes.
