Patients who need their cardiac status monitored may have a choice of medical facilities in their area, but they go to yours because its where they expect to receive specialized care. But should you assume that all of your EKG monitors deliver accurate readings? When an EKG machine delivers imprecise or unreliable measurements, some medical conditions, such as myocardial infection, can go undetected. When this happens, some high-risk patients may not get the treatment they desperately need.
Fortunately, there is an EKG monitor on the market that is engineered to provide highly accurate readings of the heart’s electrical activity. It’s called the QRS-12, and it’s offered by Outpatient Supply.
