QT Medical is a Finalist in the Best in Class – Kids Health category, underscoring its leadership in transforming healthcare for children.

The Digital Health Awards shine a spotlight on those making strides in revolutionizing healthcare with cutting-edge digital innovations.  This year’s Digital Health Awards are very competitive with applications from over 1,500 companies.  QT Medical is among 4 companies selected as finalists for the Best in Class – Kids Health award. Winners will be announced during the Grand Finale at HLTH on October 21, 2024. 

Infants with undiagnosed long QT syndrome may die of arrhythmia in the first few months of life and be labelled as sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Young athletes with undiagnosed heart disease, such hypertrophic cardiomyopathy or cardiac channelopathy, are at risk for sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) during exercise.  Screening with 12-lead ECG can detect these diseases early for timely intervention to prevent tragedies.  QT Medical provides the home ECG screening service for infants and children called Pediatric Xpress ECG (www.xpressecg.com) .  Pediatricians can order the test online, QT Medical delivers an ECG kit to parents to complete the test on their children at home, and ECGs are uploaded to the HIPAA-complaint cloud immediately and read by pediatric electrophysiologist experts.

Dr. Ruey-Kang Chang, Founder and CEO of QT Medical, said: “This award is a recognition of QT Medical’s dedication to cardiovascular health of infants and children. As a finalist, QT Medical has demonstrated its commitment and significant contribution to kids’ cardiac health.  We believe that a healthy heart leads to a bright future for all children.”
