To adapt and refine the BodyGuardian remote health monitoring system to acquire ECG, Heart
rate (HR), activity and breathing data, which will be integrated with weight, blood pressure
and symptom data, in subjects in an independent living center, with wireless transmission of
data to a central data analysis hub.

The elderly are facing an increasing prevalence of chronic disease and rapidly escalating
healthcare costs threatening independent living. Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a growing
health epidemic and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and cost. Mayo
Clinic and Preventice have developed a non-invasive, minimally obtrusive, interactive remote
monitoring platform. It enables on-body monitoring and integration of ECG, heart rate,
breathing, and activity, with measures of weight and blood pressure. It is designed as a
platform for physician directed patient self-management. This technology may be useful in
monitoring CHF patients. Our overall objective is to adapt, refine, test and validate this
technology in subjects in an independent living center, with wireless transmission of data
to a central data analysis hub.
