Who says monitoring has to be invasive? This little patch can find out the essentials, and wirlessly send the info to your MD. Now only if the blood drawing was this painless.
Patients will attach this patch to their arm, and it will wirelessly transmit blood pressure, heart rate and blood oxygen levels to a handheld. (The data can also be transmitted by wire.) The handheld, in turn, will transmit the data to a doctor. The device is a prototype now, but it may go on the market next year.
