A device for monitoring heart activity comprises a carrier having a size approximately coextensive with the chest of an adult human being and a plurality of capacitative metallic foil elements attached to the carrier, the foil elements being spaced from each other in an edge-wise direction. A voltage sensing circuit is operatively connected to the foil elements for monitoring voltage levels induced therein upon approximation of the foil elements to a patient's chest.
