Summary:

«For just $149, consumers can now carry a personal ECG (electrocardiogram) device in their wallet. FDA cleared AliveCor’s KardiaMobile Card, which the Mountain View, CA-based company describes as «the slimmest, most convenient personal ECG device ever created. At the size of a standard credit card, the KardiaMobile Card is designed to fit into any wallet and deliver a medical-grade, single-lead ECG in 30 seconds.»

«After disrupting traditional ECG monitoring with our game-changing Kardia platform, we have now achieved the unprecedented milestone of creating the first-ever credit-card-sized personal ECG,» said Priya Abani, CEO of AliveCor. «KardiaMobile Card delivers the most sophisticated AI in the most convenient form factor ever, putting the power of real-time ECG analysis directly in patients’ wallets and furthering our vision of becoming the 24/7 virtual cardiologist for patients when they’re not in front of their physician.»
