AliveCor Heart Monitor

[mtdoc]

I'm currently attending a wilderness medicine conference and there are several new electronic gadgets for health and medicine in remote or wilderness settings.

One of the speakers recomended the AliveCor heart monitor.

I cannot find anything online about the technical specifications. Does anyone have any knowledge about these.?

I'm assuming it uses one of the many versions of standard ECG DAQ circuits with 60 Hz notch filter, etc. but i'd really like more info -- resolution, battery life, etc..

A good starting point is always the 510K notification of the device you want to know about. These point to the precdicate devices its compared to... which, in turn, also have either a 510K or a "big" notification.
