To clean the recorder, dampen a soft cloth with lukewarm soapy water or natural cleanser and gently wipe down the recorder. The recorder should not be immersed in water under any circumstances.
PCA 500 is not a continuous heart monitor. It is an on-demand resting 12-lead ECG. When a patient wishes to record an ECG, the patient can apply the strip and recorder and use a compatible tablet or smartphone to record an ECG which is then uploaded to the cloud.
Physician interpretation time will vary depending on your physician. If you would like your physician to review your results quickly, please contact your physician’s office.
Yes. PCA 500 is able to detect when there is a pacemaker present and it will not affect the quality of the ECG test.
ECG and EKG are the same, both refer to electrocardiogram (or electrocardiograph), a medical test that is used for measuring the electrical activities of the heart, in order to detect heart diseases. EKG is from the spelling of of elektrokardiogramm or elektrokardiographie in German.
A conventional 12-Lead ECG Machine contains 10 electrodes placed on chest and limbs for collecting signals, 10 lead wires, and a display for data analysis output.
Now, PCA 500 has incorporated all the parts into a super compact kit : An ECG recorder weighs only 2 ounces, patented prepositioned electrode strips, QT ECG App for mobile devices, and a HIPAA-compliant cloud with powerful tools for data analysis and management. Being portable without complex wires, PCA500 simplifies the 12-Lead ECG tests process that most people can complete a test with no need for training.
There are 3 types of ECG in general use : Resting 12 Lead ECG, Exercise ECG and Holter Monitor. (Learn more)
To measure the electrical activity signals of the heart, the ECG recorder is used for acquiring and recording the signal. Through the signals collected from the electrodes placed on the skin, the data will be shown as a graph with patterns to detect small electrical changes. Doctors can use it to diagnose cardiac abnormalities including rhythm and structural changes of the heart.
It will depend on the professional advice by your physician, the doctors will suggest or request the patients to take a certain ECG according to their heart conditions and symptoms. (Learn more)

The processing time to complete an upload of ECG records depends on the speed of your internet connection. Make sure that you have a stable WiFi or Cellular connection to ensure that your ECG uploads.
Please review the User’s Manual to ensure all steps and instructions are followed. If the problem persists, try recording ECG signals again after closing the QT ECG app, and rebooting the mobile device and the recorder.

For professional use, PCA 500 can be used in a variety of clinical settings. In clinics and urgent care centers, the time saved during electrode placement and the paperless, centralized ECG management will enhance efficiency and streamline workflow. In telemedicine and remote care practice, PCA 500 enables lay people (patients) and lower-skilled personnel to conduct a 12-lead ECG test. Thru our secure cloud, providers can review the results remotely. In skilled nursing facilities, adding PCA 500 can allow in-house ECG testing that saves time, money and personnel needs. PCA 500 can be used by patients based on a doctor’s prescription. Patients with intermittent arrhythmias, chronic heart failure, or those who just had a coronary bypass, stents or ablation procedures may benefit from home cardiac monitoring. The doctor can decide if PCA 500 monitoring, under a doctor's supervision, is right for the patient. To learn more about specific areas of application, visit our site “Areas of Interest”.

Yes. PCA 500 was compared directly to the Philips Pagewriter TC70 in a clinical trial to test for ECG quality equivalence. ECG equivalence, determined by 3 cardiologists, was higher than the equivalency level required by the FDA. Essentially PCA 500 produces ECG’s of the same diagnostic quality as ECG systems that are much larger and use the complicated electrode patches and cables.
No, the PCA 500 electrode strip and recorder should be removed if the patient requires defibrillation. For more information on defibrillation-proof products, please contact customer support.
