Indications for Use
EPI Mini W518 is a portable single lead electrocardiogram (ECG) recording
device. It is capable of recording, storing and sending several leads using
different configurations allowing mobile recording, storing and sending of
ECGs on-the-go. This provides the user with instant access to information
about their heart, within the limitations of a traditional 12 lead ECG. It serves
the purpose of a mobile and highly portable ECG recording device. The device
is used for ad-hoc recording of ECGs when cardiac symptoms are present to
allow the detection of abnormal heart activity. The target patient population
includes but it is not limited to users who are at risk of heart disease, have
existing heart conditions and/or users who show symptoms suggestive of
heart disease. The device is not meant to entirely replace the clinical 12 lead
ECG machine.
ECG data is recorded for 30 seconds each time by the user. Recorded ECG
data is stored on the EPI Mini and can be sent to a Smartphone via Bluetooth.
ECG data sent from the EPI Mini is received and stored for viewing on the
Smartphone using the EPI Mini mobile software application (mobile app).
Users are able to view their ECGs using the mobile app, as well as resend or
delete any of these data via the app to allow the doctor to monitor their
conditions. The ECG data recorded by the device are not designed or
intended for medical diagnosis. Conditions such as arrhythmia can only be
diagnosed by a doctor through a special examination.
