Systems, devices, methods, and kits for monitoring one or more physiologic and/or physical signals from a subject are disclosed. A system including patches and corresponding modules for wirelessly monitoring physiologic and/or physical signals is disclosed. A service system for managing the collection of physiologic data from a customer is disclosed. An isolating patch for providing a barrier between a handheld monitoring device with a plurality of contact pads and a subject is disclosed.

Apparatus and methods remove a voltage offset from an electrical signal, specifically a biomedical signal. A signal is received at a first operational amplifier and is amplified by a gain. An amplitude of the signal is monitored, by a first pair of diode stages coupled to an output of the first operational amplifier, for the voltage offset. The amplitude of the signal is then attenuated by the first pair of diode stages and a plurality of timing banks. The attenuating includes limiting charging, by the first pair of diode stages, of the plurality of timing banks and setting a time constant based on the charging. The attenuating removes the voltage offset persisting at a threshold for a duration of at least the time constant. Saturation of the signal is limited to a saturation recovery time while the saturated signal is gradually pulled into monitoring range over the saturation recovery time.

Systems, methods, and computer program product embodiments are disclosed for performing electrophysiology (EP) signal processing. An embodiment includes an electrocardiogram (ECG) circuit board configured to process an ECG signal. The embodiment further includes a plurality of intracardiac (IC) circuit boards, each configured to process a corresponding IC signal. The ECG circuit board and the plurality of IC circuit boards share substantially a same circuit configuration and components. The ECG circuit board further processes the ECG signal using substantially a same path as each IC circuit board uses to process its corresponding IC signal.
