Talk:Wireless Medical Telemetry Service

I'm somewhat familiar with WMTS as the FCC defined it in 2000. The top of this article seems to have very little to do with this. The citation does not support this text.

A quote from the FCC website (presumably not copyrighted...)

Wireless medical telemetry generally is the remote monitoring of a patient's health through radio technology. The use of wireless medical telemetry gives patients greater mobility and increased comfort by freeing them from the need to be connected to hospital equipment that would otherwise be required to monitor their condition. Wireless medical telemetry also serves the goal of reducing health care costs because it permits the remote monitoring of several patients simultaneously. All types of communications except voice and video are permitted on both a bi-directional and unidirectional basis, provided that all communications are related to the provision of medical care.

This same website also shows the bands: 608-614 MHz (known casually in the industry as the 600 MHz band) 1395-1400 and 1427-1432 MHz (together known casually in the the industry as the 1.4 GHz band)

I would say that a comment mentioning that WMTS is sometimes supplanted by commercial/consumer standards such as 802.11a/b/g is appropriate, but there are MANY WMTS products on the market.
