The Heart and Respiration Rate Monitor (HRRM HRRM High Range-Resolution Monopulse Tracking Radar ) developed by Wireless 2000 is to be exclusively distributed by AMS Homecare to the Healthcare market in North America. The device uses Wireless 2000's unique patent pending technology to allow the monitoring of individuals in Elder Care and Health Care Centers. The HRRM is to be strapped to the bed frame underneath the patient's bed (no modifications to the bed required) and behind the backrest of the patient's wheelchair in the facility to monitor individuals when they are in bed or in a wheelchair.

The HRRM measures an individual's heart rate (beats/min) and respiration rate (breaths/min) and continuously relays this information to a monitoring facility, such as a nursing station via a wireless communication module built into the HRRM.

If the individual stops breathing and his/her heart stops beating for longer than 20 sec, an alarm indication is sent to the monitoring station. "There are many uses for this Monitor including the monitoring of individuals with breathing/respiratory problems, sleeping problems and also as a high level baby monitor that will help to prevent SIDS SIDS sudden infant death syndrome.
