A Novel Vectorcardiogram System
This paper presents the proof-of-concept investigation for a miniaturized
vectorcardiogram [VCG] system for ambulatory on-body applications that
continuously monitors the electrical activity of the heart in three dimensions.
We investigate the minimum distance between a pair of leads in the X, Y and Z
axes such that the signals are distinguishable from the noise. The target
dimensions for our VCG are 3x3x2 cm and, based on our preliminary results, it
is possible to achieve these dimensions. The next step in our research is to
build the miniaturized VCG system that includes processing, learning and
communication capabilities
