The invention relates to a physiological signal monitoring method including steps that involve: acquiring samples of at least one digitized physiological signal through the use of a device (DPR, E1, E2) carried by a user; detecting events within the digitized physiological signal by means of the device and extracting characteristics of the detected events by means of the device; searching for an anomaly in the events and characteristics of the extracted events by means of the device; and, via an encrypted wireless link, transmitting the digitized physiological signal by means of the device to a server via a mobile terminal (MP) when an anomaly is detected. If an anomaly is not detected, the digitized physiological signal is deleted by the device.
