Cardiac Patients, Home Healthcare Workers, EMT/Paramedics, Veterinarians, and Others Now Receive the Benefits of Easy Access to Cardiac Monitoring
Active Corporation, producer of portable medical devices used "when life is on the line(tm)," has won two of Palm, Inc.'s first ever Powered Up Awards for its ActiveECG(tm) portable cardiac monitor. ActiveECG won the Powered Up Enterprise Solution Award and was also selected for the Best Overall Powered Up Solution Award, which recognizes the best of the best Palm OS solutions.
The pocket-sized cardiac monitor connects to a Palm OS handheld device for real-time display of ECG data and recording of ECG "strips." This allows patients in serious emergency situations to be monitored in the field, and patients requiring routine cardiac monitoring to be monitored at home.
ActiveECG beat out numerous other high-tech products produced for the popular Palm OS platform by designing innovative hardware, developing easy-to-use software, and using the latest in industrial design. These innovations make basic cardiac monitoring simple, fast -and unusually economical - important steps that vastly broaden access to this vital capability.
"It's the low cost and high quality of ActiveECG that makes it an award winner," stated Jeffrey Siegel, President of Active Corporation. "Combining our low cost product with a Palm Powered device enables many more cardiac patients, home healthcare workers and emergency professionals to obtain vital information that only a few months ago required complex machines costing thousands of dollars."
