Abstract

Instrumentation for ambulatory monitoring is presently available on the market in more than 20 different models.

This wide choice can make it difficult to adopt a particular solution. In order to investigate the existence of common criteria used in the design of the different systems, an inquiry has been made among most of the manufacturers of Ambulatory Monitoring systems. By the analysis of the questionnaires it is possible to conclude that very few components of the systems are carried out following the same approach, and that the problem of the evaluation of the performances is not approached in a uniform way. Thus the user has no objective elements suited to operate rational choices.
