Abstract

Assembly of harness and sensor substrate plates for monitoring vital signals of a patient is provided. More specifically, the present invention provides a harness, a sensor substrate plate, and related devices for non-invasively monitoring vital signals of a patient. The sensor substrate plate provides removable attachment to the skin of a patient to measure vital signals of the patient. The sensor substrate plate comprises an elongated main body comprising an upper surface and an under surface. The upper surface is configured to removably contact the skin surface of the patient. Further, a plurality of slots on the upper surface of the main body is mechanically and electrically configured to hold sensors or electrodes for monitoring biometric parameters of the patient. The upper surface also includes a first through hole mechanically and electrically configured to hold an electrical connector; and a first end and a second end of the main body.

Claims (10)

1. A harness for use on an animal, the harness comprising:

a bottom portion with a front edge, a rear edge, and a pocket;

a top portion with a front edge, a rear edge, and an aperture;

side portions extending from each side of the bottom portion;

side portions extending from each side of the top portion; and

mating connectors on the side portions allowing the side portions of the bottom portion to be connected to the side portions of the top portion,

wherein a sensor is positioned within the pocket,

wherein a first leg aperture and a second leg aperture for a front legs of the animal is formed when the side portions of the bottom portion and the side portions of the top portion are connected, and

wherein the harness is configured to a size and a shape of the animal.

2. The harness of claim 1 , wherein the matting connectors comprise a set of hooks located on the side portions of the bottom portion and a set of straps located on the side portions of the top portion whereby the set of straps insert and loop around the set of hooks.
