Abstract :
The high medical expense is the obstacle to cover more people to get better medical and health service. The trend might be reversed with increased BRIC economy strength, and the new world demands a low cost monitoring and diagnostic solution that can reach more people in remote rural areas in China, and other countries. Our research and commercialization effort on wearable and portable ECG terminal has a potential to be a platform to create more medical service capability. In the paper, the ECG medical “Internet of Things” is introduced. Our product has been licensed and applied in Chinese market.
