Abstract

A remote wireless monitoring system for patient data, and an ambulatory system for processing and transmitting physiological characteristic data are provided. An embodiment of a system for remote wireless monitoring of data for a patient includes an ambulatory sensor/transmitter subsystem that wirelessly transmits measured values of a physiological characteristic of the patient, a base station that wirelessly receives signals from the sensor/transmitter subsystem, and a remote monitor that wirelessly receives signals from the base station. The remote monitor is configured to generate audio and/or visual indicia (representing alarms, the measured values, device or system status information, etc.) in response to the base station signals. An embodiment of an ambulatory system includes a physiological characteristic sensor, a self-contained sensor processor module coupled to the ambulatory physiological characteristic sensor, and an ambulatory data receiver device coupled to the self-contained sensor processor module.
