“The business card-sized iCard ECG mounts to the back of your iDevice using velcro and wirelessly feeds data from its electrodes to the AliveECG app. The app automatically records 30 seconds of your heart’s rhythmic pulse before uploading it to AliveCor’s servers for sharing with your doctors.”

The bad news? They’re still awaiting FDA approval!

Comment from TrianaHealth: Real-time monitoring is also very much useful to primary responders and EMTs prior to getting emergency patients to hospitals. Incredible tool; we can only imagine that the apparatus would be able to be adapted to different clinical uses, including internal scans. Great innovation. We are sure they’ll have an easy 510k approval.
