Researchers from the Queensland University of Technology have managed to cobble together a remote health monitoring device by wiring a cell phone, a GPS receiver, and an ECG unit. This DIY device is more than capable of tracking a patient's rehabilitation regiment closely. It was specially designed to focus on post MI patients, sending ECG , speed and walking incline data to a monitoring clinician remotely. Should the patient experience any difficulty, the cardiologist will be able to weigh in with relevant advice, greatly reducing the risk of death thanks to speedy action and notification.
