摘要：
A method of monitoring a health status of a patient using a monitoring system comprising a processor [170], an electrical signal conversion unit [104], and a pair of earbud electrocardiogram (ECG) monitors [102]. Each earbud monitor [102] comprises conductive electrode component [110] (e.g., physiological-type sensor) configured to receive biopotential signals from a respective ear of the patient. The electrical signal conversion unit [104] controls earbud [102] operations, and converts earbud readings into ECG data [530] that are transmitted to a smartphone [170] for further analysis. The electrical signal conversion unit [104] components may include a System on a Chip (SoC) [200] comprising a data store [240], a processor [250], and a power supply [280].
