摘要

Selection of conductive polymer towards the design of dry bio potential sensor for physiological signal recordings is quite challenging. Such dry sensors are much essential for long term continuous monitoring applications. This specific study suggests a development of breathable 1.1 oz Ripstop nylon (BRN) based dry electrocardiogram (ECG) sensors for continuous recording cardiac rhythms. Bipolar limb lead configurations, Lead 1, Lead 2 and Lead 3 configurations were considered towards recording of ECG signals and its performance was assessed in terms of signal quality, ECG fidelity point tests, fidelity characteristics Ripstop based dry sensors found to yield comparable results with that of standard Ag/AgCl wet sensors for shorter duration recordings assessment and better per-formance while using it for longer duration (72 hrs) recordings setup. This pilot study has been carried out with 82 healthy volunteers and the proposed system has to be validated with larger group before the procedure can be introduced to the clinical routine.
