Abstract
A system and method adapted for at least one health-related application selected from physiological monitoring, defibrillation, and pacing in the presence of electromagnetic interference (EMI) using the time-domain features of EMI patterns and physiological waveforms. The invention enables EMI detection and identification in a plurality of signals, including various physiological signals, which may contain both physiological information and EMI-generated artifacts. The system utilizes adaptive and versatile modular architecture with a set of modules for various filtering, conditioning, processing, and wireless transmission functions, which can be assembled in different configurations for different settings. In some preferred embodiments, the method and system of this invention are incorporated into (or attached to) an external cardiac defibrillator/monitor or cardiac pacing device. Other preferred embodiments include a wireless monitoring system that provides reliable wireless data transmission during patient table (bed) movement.
