Abstract

A muscle activity monitoring system that integrates a minimal data-collection and analysis system into a disposable, single-use device that achieves data collection and analysis without requiring the assistance of a trained technician. The monitoring system includes a muscle activity sensor for sensing muscle activity at a location on the body, and a processor for analyzing the sensed muscle activity to determine a presence of a pattern of muscle activity that is correlated to a diagnosis. The diagnosis is displayed by a plurality of non-volatile markers. The markers are preferably heat-sensitive or electrochemical cells that undergo a permanent detectable change when a current flows through the cells. A housing houses the processor, the display, and a power source on the muscle activity sensor.
