Question

The monitor automatically transmits recorded data transtelephonically to a central monitoring station for subsequent analysis when an arrhythmia is detected by an arrhythmia algorithm.

(a) True

(b) False

I got this question in a job interview.

My query is from Cardiotocograph in chapter Foetal Monitoring Instruments of Biomedical Instrumentation

Answer 1

Right option is (a) True

To explain: In Real-Time Continuous Cardiac Monitoring Systems, the monitor is equipped with software that analyzes the rhythm data continuously and automatically. The monitor automatically transmits recorded data transtelephonically (by wireless network or land phone line) to a central monitoring station for subsequent analysis when an arrhythmia is detected by an arrhythmia algorithm.
