“Just want to throw my 2 cents in about these EKG devices. I bought the Kardia on Amazon almost a month ago. I bought it because the SonoHealth divice was on back order, and I wanted something right away. Well the Sono Health showed up two weeks ago, and I've been doing a lot of thinking about which one I'm going to return. The Kardia obviously is smaller, and it connects directly to the app on your phone and does a decent job. We're all different, and I know the A-fib can change in an instant, but it seems that a lot of the time, if I get an A-fib reading, I just do it again and it comes up normal. Also with the Kardia, after the first 30 days, you have to download and save your readings or email them to yourself to keep them if you don't want to spend the $10 a month for the servce. All in all, it does the job, but lacks in a few areas. Also, the battery was dead after less than 4 weeks. The SonoHealth unit is rechargable. it's self contained. I find myself as the days go by, grabbing this instead of the Kardia. It stores the EKGs internally, and you sync it to the app on your phone whenever you have the time. The readings are similar to the Kardia in the sense that I feel that there's false positives sometimes, but they are only $100 units. We can't expect perfection. I'm liking the SonoHealth a little more at this point because it's still pretty small, just as accurate, and I don't need to grab my phone and open an app every time I want to check myself out. I keep it in my pocket at work. So I don't have to go to the office to grab my phone or tablet. Also, I believe on their website, they still have a pre-sale price of $89. For what it's worth, I just figured I'd share.
I wrote this a week ago on an A-fib page on FB. I have since returned the Kardia and am keeping the SonoHealth. As time goes on, the ease of the accessibility and being rechargeable are the key reasons. Also getting questions answered by the company is a piece of cake also. Very fast to respond.”
“Much better product than the Kardia that I wasted my money on. Great app and great customer support. Accurate diagnosis as well. Highly recommended..”
“We just got this device 2 weeks ago. My husband and I are RNs & already use other home health devices: glucometer, sphygmomanometer, temporal thermometer, continuous glucose monitor, Apple Watch activity tracker, etc. One day last month I was having an irregular pulse. Since we participated in the Apple Heart Study and were familiar with EKG functions using the Apple device, my geeky”
“I got my SonoHealth a few weeks ago. It is giving me much greater peace of mind. If I think I feel something out of the norm I just do a quick EKG and check it. Along with changing my diet to a paleo one and taking heart healthy supplements as suggested on Dr Stephen Sinatra's website, I think I'm on the right track to heart health now. I have recommended the SonoHealth to so many people who have arrhythmia because a holter monitor may not catch the missed beats when they're actually happening and with SonoHealth, you can do the tracing the moment something occurs. SonoHealth also posted to countries other than just the USA for a reasonable cost. It's a win/win.”
“I have arrhythmia that has sent me to urgent care in the past . It was recommended by an urgent care Dr that I get a portable EKG. This product is fabulous! It allows me to take an EKG reading any time and send it to my cardiologist .”
“I ordered this product after wasting a day in the ER with what we thought was my wife having a heart problem. Her cardiologist thought it was a good idea and I concur. It’s as easy to use a taking you temperature with a thermometer. Love it.”
“I got this for my husband who has heart problems. There was another one that I saw advertised, but this one's reviews were better so I tried it. It is a very good machine. I took it to his heart Dr. showed it to her, she said yes it was good. They did an EKG on him and the girl said he was in AFib, the Dr said she knew that by looking at my SonoEKG. I'm glad they have this and I don't have to pay extra for the results, they are on my phone. And so easy to use.”
