Equivital Wireless Physiological Monitoring System
The Equivital EQ01 System is a complete human physiological
monitoring platform suitable for both indoor and field based
monitoring/ research. Data can be viewed in real time AND
recorded to the device memory. Monitor subjects in the lab or
remotely with GPS location using GPRS transmission (available on
certain cell phones and wireless carriers),
SMS text messaging , proprietary radio, a Tetra radio
terminal or Tactical Military Radio.
The
EQ01-1000 lightweight and waterproof unit records:
- Heart Rate
- 2 Lead ECG
- Respiratory Rate and Effort
- Skin Temperature
- Movement and Body Orientation
and include event marking capability, power ON
and battery level indication, fall alarm and
exercise intensity.
The system will also record core body temperature
using Jonah
ingestible pills and up to 8 disposable dermal
temperature patches
Model EQ01-1250 includes a sensor cable
for recording GSR or pulse oxymetry

The Equivital Systems is the only medically approved (EU and
FDA), multiparameter, ambulatory monitoring system capable of
measuring core body temperature.
Software
Introductory package includes software with basic viewing tools.
A System developer kit and optional turnkey softwares are
available.
LiveLink Pro 2.0 & 3.0
The LiveLink local area configuration can offer real time
data views from multiple subjects with live waveform viewing
(version 3.0) and summary data.
Live Alerts
Software offers the ability to set limits for alerts
or alrams for each recorded parameter. An individual
alert will be displayed on the live screen
Welfare Index
The system features a "physiological welfare
index" which uses predefined parameter
limits to create a contextual welfare alarm
based on the wearer's physiology and
movement
Local Area System configuration
For local area application, up to five sensors will communicate
with a PC computer using Bluetooth Class 1 link.
To record from up to 20 sensor, a proprietary communication hub
is available.
For 21 sensors or more, multiple hubs can be cascaded
LiveLink Pro 2.0 software offers:
- Transmit data continuously or at set
intervals
- Real Time multiple subject vital signs
viewing
- Synchronization of session data from
multiple subjects
- Interface directly with sensor or Equivital
Hub
- Replay options for retrospective viewing
- Live alarms including fall alarm
- Data export and import function for
integration with other data systems

LiveLink Pro 3.0 offers:
- All
the features or LiveLink Pro 2.0
- Clinically approved
waveform viewer
- Full disclosure live
waveform view

Wide Area System Configuration
For subject monitoring over a larger area, the Equivital
Explorer software allows communication between the sensor and a
remote computer using a cellular phone with Windows Mobile
software and GPS enabled function using GPRS network or text
messaging. Alternatively an Equivital Gateway Radio is used to
transmit summary physiology data and geo-location via ISM band
radio to a RF modem.
Web based live viewing platform with integrated geo-location
capability.
The web based Equivital Explorer platform can be used to provide
live physiological data integrated with geo-location. This is
enable by each Equivaital monitor being associated with a GSP
data feed usually acquired from the communication relay device.
The system allows summary data to be viewed at time intervals
which are set by the user. Alert and alarms can be set for each
recorded parameter and displayed on the live screen.
Welfare Index: the system features a welfare index whihc
uses predefined parameter limites to create a contextual welfare
alarm based on the wearer's physiology and movement.
Trend: software allow trend data for each monitor to be
displayed in real time and compared between individual subjects.
Multiple Radio Interfaces
Cellular phone relay
GSM/GPRS phones with GPS function enabled and running Windows
Mobile software will send summary physiology data and
geo-location using text messaging or GPRS. Some phones offering
these features include Rogers Samsung Messenger, Rogers Hp iPaq
Hw 6955, Telus HTC Touch Pro, Bell and Telus Palm Treo Pro and
Wind Mobile HTC Maple.
A GSM modem with a subscription from a wireless operator
allows data to be received on a server or individual computer.
MOdem are available from cellular service provides or from
manufacturers such as Itegno, Multitech, Headwind and Novatel
Wireless.
Equivital Gateway Radio
For field radio communication, the Gateway operates on ISM
(industrial, scientific and medical) licensed-free band radio
(2.5 GHz or 900 MHz) at a range of up to 5 Km. An optional 10m
field mast and antenna is available to ensure maximum area
coverage.
Tetra and Tactical Military Radio (with customisation for near
field communications for a large number of units) communication
are also possible.
