FDA Approvals For Wearable ECG Devices Now And Soon
I’ve been using Alivecor for measuring ECG on my smartphone and now I was glad to find out new similar devices also got FDA approvals or are seeking to get it. Here are the recent examples for the evolution of the wearable revolution:
McKesson secured clearance for a mobile medical app called McKesson Cardiology ECG Mobile.
Vital Connect received FDA clearance for its Vital Connect Platform, which is the system that supports the company’s peel-and-stick, Bandaid-like vital signs monitorHealthPatch.
Tel Aviv, Israel-based HealthWatch previewed its hWear line of tshirts with interwoven ECG sensors, allowing the shirt to function as a 3 to 15 lead ECG.
