The Eko App is required to take recordings with the CORE 500™ and view AI analysis results on the device’s screen.* You’ll also need it to visualize the phonocardiogram (PCG) and 3-lead ECG.

Indications

The CORE 500™ Digital Stethoscope is intended to be used by clinicians to electronically amplify, filter, and transfer body sounds and 3-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) waveforms. The CORE 500™ Digital Stethoscope also displays ECG waveforms and heart rate on the display and accompanying mobile application (when prescribed or used under the care of a clinician).

The data offered by the device is only significant when used in conjunction with clinician evaluation as well as consideration of other relevant patient data.

*Some features may require a paid Eko App membership.
