动态心电图监测仪是一种患者佩戴的设备，用于收集大约 24 小时的心电图 (ECG) 数据。然后医生将该设备连接到计算机以下载数据。对该数据的分析可以揭示在较短持续时间的临床测量中可能不会出现的异常情况。动态心电图监测仪的成本是一个关键参数，因为与其他临床仪器不同，患者使用动态心电图监测仪的时间较长。设备的可用性限制了医院可以监测和治疗的患者数量。此外，患者需要定制测量，这是大多数可用设备所不提供的。该设备的高成本阻碍了医生长期监测使用，例如运动员的运动表现、独立生活的老年患者、服用引起副作用的药物的患者等。在本文中，我们提出了一种低成本的动态心电图监测仪，可以使用现成的组件进行组装。它可以根据个人需求进行定制，并且可以扩展。开发的软件架构和通信框架可用于任何数据密集型测量和传输。
A Holter Monitor is a device which is worn by patients and is used to collect Electrocardiography (ECG) data for around 24 hours. This device is then connected to a computer by a physician to download the data. An analysis of this data can reveal abnormalities which may not appear in a clinical measurement of shorter duration. Cost of a Holter monitor is a crucial parameter, as this is used by patients for longer duration, unlike other clinical instruments. Availability of devices restricts the number of patients which can be monitored and treated by hospitals. In addition patients require customization of measurements which most of the available device do not offer. The high cost of this device is deterring physicians from long term monitoring use like athletic performance of sportsmen, elderly patients for independent living, patients taking medications causing side-effects etc. In this paper we present a low cost Holter Monitor which can be assembled using off the shelf components. It can be customized for individual needs and is extendable. The software architecture and communication framework developed can be used for any data intensive measurement and transmission.
