References: ekodevices & digitaltrends
Healthcare startup Eko Devices has put together the Eko Core, a digitally connected stethoscope design that is able to track data, upload it to the cloud system and help doctors better diagnose their patients. This is an ideal tool for medical professionals all over the world as the industry strives to more accurately treat the illnesses and ailments of patients.
The Eko Core comes either as a simple attachment adapter that works in conjunction with any stethoscope design, or with the brand's own accompanying stethoscope. The device increases the sound and recording ability of heartbeats and other natural movements. The data is then shared on a cloud database that doctors can refer back to and discuss.
Currently the Eko Core is being used in Haiti and offering revolutionary improvements to the healthcare system.
