Cellular Phone with Embedded ECG Unit

The unit will guide the user through the process of measurement and will automatically initiate communication with a medical center to which it will digitally transmit the ECG via the cellular link, there to be displayed on a computer screen for a doctor to evaluate while the patient is online.

The CardioGSM is being developed by Voice Diary, Inc. (VDYI, Jericho, NY, USA). The company believes there is a large market for the product among people with cardiovascular disease, especially those who rely on at-home care or telemedicine. The company has received an order for 10,000 units from Natali, (Ramat Gan, Israel), a firm that is a leading provider of emergency medical services in Israel to 45,000 subscribers. Patients store their medical history at Natali's headquarters, and transmit their ECG information by phone to Natali's center, which is monitored by cardiac nurses 24 hours a day.

"Following the order from Natali, we will be looking to expand our core technology and add additional lines of products through strategic acquisitions or mergers,” said Arik Hinkis, president of Voice Diary.
