Previous SEL Number: 01ZA-01-PPMS

Description: System consisting of sensors, individual transmitters, receivers, and display platform that enables remote monitoring of multiple individuals' key physiological indicators such as heart rate, respiratory rate, skin temperature, body posture (vertical, prone) and activity (stationary, walking, running). Includes built-in alerts and alarms to assess each operator's physiological status (through red/orange/green indicators), provide life sign detection and predict fatigue and heat strain.

ImportantFeatures: Will most often utilize RF transmission, and may "piggy-back" on existing radio systems by utilizing an interface device attached to radio microphone. Sensors may be worn as a separate chest strap, or can be integrated into garments such as a tactical vest, tee shirt, or polo shirt.

Operating Considerations: Check compatibility with existing radios if "piggy-back" strategy is planned. If transmission is other than piggy-back, assess usability of systems inside confined spaces for proper transmission of data. Ensure that system capacity (number of individuals to be monitored) is adequate for planned mission staffing. Check battery life (or life between battery charges) to ensure adequate duration for mission profiles. There are generally no industry accepted parameters for ascertaining individual health conditions. These devices are often used for monitoring during rehabilitation.
