Biotelemetry and How it is Applied in Medical Field
Biotelemetry is the process which the measurement of biological parameters is done over a distance. This involves transmitting the bioelectrical and physiological data from the point of generation i.e. a patient located away from the hospital to the point of reception (hospital). The biological data are put in a suitable form to be transmitted by…
