What is the PocketECG?
Approximately the size of a smart phone, the PocketECG is just as easy to use. Lightweight and portable, it’s designed to make the test as simple and effective as possible for patients. It tracks every heart beat to give the best data possible in mobile cardiac diagnostics.
HOW DO I USE IT?

It’s as easy as pressing a button.
ACTIVITY

What about activity?
You may keep the recorder on when playing all sports that do not involve water, such as swimming. It is recommended to wear a tight top and tuck the recorder and its wires underneath it.
* It is important to remember to take the Pocket ECG off when participating in any kind of sporting event or activity that involves water, such as swimming.
