Anyone here use a home ECG ?

Post by BlizzardUK » Wed Sep 23, 2015 10:11 pm

I love medical gizmos and wondered if anyone here has a home ECG ? They can be bought for around $200. If so, anyone know which is the best ? I use a CMS50I Oximeter which works fine with Sleepyhead but it not meant to be a ECG really. I know this is a CPAP forum but the heart and apnea is all related and I am not sure who else to ask.

I have one of these...

My cardiologist seems to think that it provides useful information. Not good enough for diagnosis but gives enough information to follow to the next step.

I use a PC-80B for overnight recording and am trying to find the irregularities in the files
