Abstract

1453866 Apparatus for diagnosing the condition of the heart of an individual SURVIVAL TECHNOLOGY Inc 4 Dec 1973 [4 Dec 1972] 56047/73 Heading G1N (E) [Also in Division H4] In a portable device for sensing the cardiac condition of a patient a pair of carbon filled plastics electrodes 86, which are intended to be placed under the armpits of the patient, provide an input E.C.G. signal which after passing through an amplifier 88 is directed via switches 90 either via a voltage controlled oscillator 92 and amplifier 94 to provide a frequency modulated audio signal to a loudspeaker 96, or, via a frequency range detector circuit 98 which causes the loud-speaker 96 to "beep" for every heart beat and to activate coloured lights 100 or 102 if the heart beat frequency is in one of two frequency ranges (that is the ranges containing frequency characteristics indicating the likelihood and nature of a heart attack). The loud-speaker part of the device is intended to be placed near the microphone of a telephone handset, see Fig. 1, so that qualified personnel in a central station will be able to advise the patient on a suitable treatment as well as alerting ambulances, hospitals &c. Audio transducers at the central station may be used to convert the incoming signals into signals driving electro cardio scopes or electrocardio graphs. In the event of no telephone being available the light being activated (green or orange) indicates which drug is to be administered by the patient through a corresponding automatic injector Fig. 6 (not shown), filled with the drug. For simplicity, the automatic injectors have colour codes thereon corresponding to the various colours of the lights. The automatic injectors may be carried in a pocket on the portable device.
