    The Connectivity, Mobility and Patient's Comfort (CMPC) workshop is the second international workshop organized In conjunction with 3rd International Conference on Pervasive Computing Technologies for Healthcare 2009. The aim of this workshop is to bring together all scientists and international players from the globe, who work on CMPC spects helping elderly and patients to be treated and/or after cared safely at own home. The workshop presenters will discuss scientific knowledge related to healthcare technologies from two different but complementary point of view; Engineering (including the development of novel sensory technologies, telemedicine, advanced and secure wireless and mobile technologies), and Medical implementation in healthcare environments (including hospital, clinic, nursing home, private home with focus on patient's compliance and satisfaction).

Exploiting the full potential of this technology poses several design challenges for both the miniaturized ECG sensor, as well as the required infrastructure for data transport, storage and diagnosis. This paper proposes an ECG sensor prototype allowing experimentation on sensor technology and signal processing as well as infrastructure. The prototype is based on the Blackfin processor from Analog Devices, and uses Bluetooth for wireless communication.
