I have used your product for one clinical day. I faced the following challenges: 1) I need to pull my phone up and open the app to record from the stethoscope. Patients can clearly see something is going on. This makes them nerves and they asking questions. Of course it is understandable in this age of "Data-Security", however i do not want them to worry about it and don't want to waste time explaining. It would be nice if the device it self could have a temporary memory, so i can transfer the recording after a consultation. Or maybe just have the app working in the background with the phone closed and hidden. 2) This brings me to the next issue; having to save the recording to a patient right away. In a busy day i have to do other stuff before i can use time on saving the record and maybe create a new patient. Here i would prefer having recordings with date and time, and the possibility to late edit a title or assign them to patients. 3) The recording sound is too low. I can nearly not hear anything. Can this sound be amplified? Lastly i want to thank you for a brilliant product, it really enhanced the sounds when used with stethoscope. And i love the recording function.

I am an older veterinarian with less than perfect hearing. I was very pleasantly surprised at how much louder the heartbeats were with the Eko Core. I can also hear abnormal lungs sounds better. And it is easier to hear the heartbeats “under” the purring in cats. This was a great investment! I also like and use the volume control, as now, sometimes, remarkably, the sounds heard are too loud. The only complaint is the attachment makes it a little cumbersome applying the stethoscope to smaller animals chests, but I expect to adapt to it pretty quickly.

It is a very good attachment and I’m glad I can use this to go over tricky breath sounds and heart sounds.

I had a good Littman Cardiology stethoscope so I just bought the core attachment. It works well for amplification and the blue tooth connects easily but now that I see the Bluetooth reading, I wish I had paid a little more and got the new head that transmits an ECG read out

For the most part, I really like the Eko digital attachment. I was, however, extremely disappointed to find that you have to sign up for a paid plan in order to use live streaming. While undesirable, a delay in sound may be tolerable when listening to heart and breath sounds. Delayed sound is problematic for monitoring blood pressure accurately. It felt like a bait and switch situation. Once I figured that out, I couldn’t even sign up for a paid plan online. I was directed to submit my information in order to have some contact me. Pros: Digitizing my stethoscope Wireless auscultation Visualization via Eko App Cons: Live streaming requires paid plan (this is not disclosed up front) Lack of transparency on the website about plan costs Inability to sign up for a plan online

Thank you for your review and feedback. You do not have to pay for the wireless auscultation feature with the CORE. The paid live streaming feature is in regard to our Eko Telehealth solutions, which yes, is at additional cost. Please reach out to us at support@ekohealth.com or call/text us at + 1 (844) 356-3384 if you need any further assistance.
