The kit comprises a connection box electrically connectable to the monitoring equipment in such a manner as to let the patient free to move in the given area. It also comprises a harness to be worn by the patient. The harness includes a chest-piece on which can be mounted the connection box. At least one primary conductor cable is provided, which has one end electrically connectable to the connection box and at least one other end provided with a connecting plug. This connection plug is detachably fixable with a sticking pad. Alternatively, the connection plug may be fixed in the same position on a back-strap forming part of the harness and passing over shoulder of the patient. At least one secondary conductor cable is also provided, which has one end electrically connectable to the connecting plug of the primary cable, and at least one other end electrically connectable to at least one skin-marker and/or electrode.
