Abstract
The drawbacks of existing post-operative heart monitoring systems create the demand for novel methods of monitoring patients heart activity. The continued advances in the field of micro electromechanical systems (MEMS) make it possible to create a heart monitoring system using commercially available sensors and develop a mission specific package for it. In this paper an early prototype of such a system system is described.
