Synchronised measurement of ECG (electrocardiogram), heart rate, SpO2 (blood- oxygen saturation) and respiration rate can be achieved using a single chip from Analog Devices. The MAX86178 triple-system vital signs analogue front end (AFE) from Analog Devices has been developed to simplify the design of wearable remote patient monitoring (RPM) devices by measuring four vital signs with a single chip.
