Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I've had the ReadMyHeart v2.0 handheld ECG about 2 months now and I'm quite satisfied. I recommend it as a helpful in-the-home heart monitor - but it is certainly no substitue for a hospital's full-blown 12 lead ECG machine. The prior reviewer, Neil Froemming, states that 'you cannot see a tracing either on the device or using the download software' but this is only half correct: The device itself has a 'pseudo' display, but you can upload your actual trace (via the USB cable provided) to the ReadMyHeart software running on your computer. (Perhaps Mr. Froemming had some kind of computer difficulty, but this process worked easily and flawlessly on my computer.) The trace is easily printed on your PC's printer or can be saved to a jpg image file. A history of past traces (with dates/times/comments) is maintained on your computer, and the data from different individuals can be tracked separately - a nice feature. The 5 photos shown here on amazon are not misleading - they exactly correspond to what I see on my monitor, manual, cables and software. As other reviewers have noted, the thumbpads produce a noisy trace (the trace's baseline veers up and down) and I don't trust it (except as an indication of heart rate and beat by beat rhythm spacing). But when using the provided leads (one on each forearm) the results are consistent and not noisy. A single lead ECG trace like this is simply inadequate to diagnose many heart ailments, but it can be helpful for some like arrhythmia. My cardiologist was quite interested to hear whether the ReadMyHeart indicated any erratic heart rhythm when I was experiencing a minor tightness sensation in my chest. This is the only home ECG unit I have ever used, but I recommend it for those with a computer who are interested in having a simple, inexpensive ECG heart monitor.
