AliveCor with case for iPhone 5/5S
The AliveCor Heart Monitor is an easy-to-use, powerful, and accurate ECG-recording device that fits in your pocket and enables you to record an ECG anywhere, anytime. If you feel a symptom, the Heart Monitor can capture it quickly.
The monitor is FDA-cleared in the US for over-the-counter use to store and transfer single-channel ECG rhythms wirelessly. The AliveCor Heart Monitor is a FDA-cleared mobile ECG recorder for both iPhone and Android mobile devices. See more here
The system consists of the heart monitor itself, which can be mounted onto the back of most smartphones, or embedded into a special case for the iPhone 5 or 5S, and the AliveECG app, which shows you your electrocardiogram (ECG) reading. To check out your heart’s activity, you just place the detector against your fingers or your chest. It took me about 4 minutes to download the free app and to set it up. You can input notes with your readings to indicate what time of the day it is and it helps to see my stress levels.
