Abstract
The chapter provides a report on the wireless biomedical signal acquisition system that has been developed and applied recently in a hospital. The authors describe a universal wireless device (bioelectric amplifier) with a case study of the wireless communication. Advantages and disadvantages of considered standards have been described. The most important feature of the bioelectric amplifier is the software configuration ability towards specific requirements that occur during the registration of different signals. The study shows examples for ECG (Electrocardiography), EGG (Electrogastrography), EOG (Electro-oculography), EEG (Electroencephalography) with the same wireless device. The portable unit is under clinical trials tests and preliminary evaluation indicates acceptance by medical staff. Additional advantages are the relatively low cost of manufacture and the possibility of application of other wireless transmission standards.
