This is a band for the Apple Watch that incorporates a tool to perform electrocardiograms quickly, easily and reliably is the the first EKG reader for Apple Watch. In the Apple Watch we have a sensor that is automatically measuring our heart rate and this strap made by AliveCor seems to go a step further in terms of measurements and is capable of anticipate heart problems.
The Kardia Band has been available in Europe for a long time but it has not been until now that the AliveCor company received the certification to be used in the United States. This strap adds a sensor to perform electrocardiograms at the moment and this something very interesting for patients with a heart problem.
The operation is simple and is that once put on the device communicates with the Apple Watch wirelessly and also connects with its own application, which is an application that is available for iPhone and with which we can keep track of all these measurements. This application controls all the information through graphs and data and is very useful if the user has or may have heart problems since it would be able to detect cardiac anomalies that lead to that situation.
According to some media, it has an accuracy at the level of any medical equipment to take these EKG measurements, but the main problem is that it requires an annual payment application to be able to control this data directly with your doctor, something that makes it a tool useful but expensive, since it's about $ 200 a strap plus a subscription de $ 99 a year to share the data. Of course, in the United States the issue of health is private and therefore for many users it can be a good purchase option in case of heart conditions or problems.
