With the adoption of 2G and 3G cellular network technologies, mobile phones now have the bandwidth capability to stream data back to monitoring stations in real-time. Our paper describes the design and evaluation of a Bluetooth electrocardiogram sensor that transmits medical data to a cell phone. This data is displayed and stored on the phone. Future development of the system will relay this data over a cellular GPRS network. The current system provides a low cost and lightweight alternative to existing EKG event monitors. The final GPRS connected system will provide continuous monitoring of a patient?s heart anywhere cellular coverage is available.
