ABSTRACT
The design and implementation of an ambulatory health monitoring
device is a process of matching the medical need to available
technology. The process starts with an understanding of the re-
quirements, which leads to the design of sensors, filters, amplifiers,
etc. There are a number of additional decisions to be made that
range from the battery chemistry to the wireless technology that
must also match the underlying requirements. Finally, some existing
implementations will be reviewed.
