The Concept Behind DECRO
Etisense’s wearable telemetry solution offers a non-invasive monitoring approach for physiological data collection in preclinical research and veterinary applications, from small to large animals.
This solution, thanks to its unique jackets embedding biosensors, enables continuous and real-time measurement of vital signs (ECG, respiratory rate, activity) without the need for surgery or restraint, reducing stress on animals and improving data quality and reproducibility.
It features a small-footprint hardware design, including a miniaturized Bluetooth emitter for seamless wireless transmission of physiological signals and a USB-rechargeable battery, making it convenient for repeated use and long recording sessions.

The Telemetric Jackets
Telemetric jacket systems for collecting physiological data without the need for surgery.
Quick and Easy Setup
Our jackets are designed to simplify the technician’s procedure and reduce the time required before collecting the first data. For small mammals, we have designed a patented fitting tube and jackets to facilitate dressing rats and marmosets. When it comes to larger species, we’ve created unique instrumented jackets that do not require undershirts or overshirts to provide high-quality and reliable signals.
One Jacket, One Animal, One Study
Jackets are reusable on the same animal for several days, until the size no longer fits.
Animals can exhibit normal behavior while wearing the jacket. Rats may wear a jacket continuously for 24 hours or more. Our jackets are simple to take off and put back on, allowing for weekly measurements.
3Rs-Compliant Monitoring
Our jackets simplify the process of gaining ethics committee approval for animal studies. They enable physiological data recording without invasive surgery or the stress of restraint in plethysmography chambers. This approach significantly reduces the severity of studies, allowing animals to be observed in their usual environment, often with their social groups. This fully aligns with the 3Rs guidelines (Replacement, Reduction, Refinement).
Our telemetric jackets are available for multiple species

DECRO Telemetry Hardware
Smart, compact, and plug-and-play — the core technology behind reliable data collection.
The DECRO® solution combines electronic and intuitive design to deliver high-quality physiological data without compromising animal welfare or research efficiency. At the core of this innovation are two key elements: a lightweight Bluetooth emitter and a compact acquisition system.
Compact Emitter
The DECRO emitter collects ECG, respiratory, and movement signals through a lightweight and ergonomic design that preserves natural animal behavior. Its compact, miniaturized form includes a low-energy Bluetooth transmitter with a 10 m wireless range, allowing seamless data transmission without cross-talk between multiple animals. Powered by usb-rechargeable and exchangeable batteries, it is ideal for multi-animal setups and longitudinal studies.
The device is EMC, CE, and RoHS certified, ensuring compliance with international safety, electromagnetic compatibility, and environmental standards.
Plug-and-Play Acquisition System
Simply use your web browser to wirelessly collect biosignals sent by the DECRO emitters via Bluetooth with our proprietary acquisition software integrated into DECRO hardware. With its minimal hardware footprint, DECRO hardware fits easily into any lab environment and can also be deployed as a mobile solution when needed.
Our hardware is available in multiple configurations
