KardiaMobile 6L Max EKG Monitor, Includes One-Year KardiaCare Membership, FDA-Cleared Heart Monitor, Medical-Grade Results in 30 Seconds, Unlimited Recordings, Works with Smartphones and Tablets

This is an awesome device for performing advanced EKG analyses from the comfort of your home. I purchased it to assist in monitoring runs of SVT (super ventricular tachycardia) that I experience from time to time, which are mostly benign but I like to know that what's happening are SVTs and not something else. I love the ability to share the EKG readings with my cardiologist, and the ability to have a real cardiologist analyze the EKG (up to 4 times a year with the $99 membership; first year is included in the device price). The 6L is brain-dead simple to use. Just fire up the app, click 'Record EKG', make sure the device is oriented correctly (with the logo like an 'A'), put your thumbs on the pads and place the back of the device on your left thigh or ankle. 30 seconds later, a 6-lead EKG is done. You can also create a two-lead EKG without requiring it to be connected to your leg. I can't speak to battery life yet, but I'd imagine it lasts quite a while. Replacing the battery will require removing two small screws but shouldn't take long. I also really like the size of the 6L; you can literally slip it into a purse or a pocket, and it's very easy to travel with. Overall, this is a great value when you consider the cost of getting a professional EKG done, although I should mention that this is definitely not a replacement for a real ER or cardiologist visit. I see this mainly as a nice addition to my BP monitor and smart watch. It's quick and easy to use and $99/year for the membership after year one is a pretty good deal when you consider you're getting 4 cardiologist EKG readings as a part of cost.

I can’t say enough good things about this device. It has been incredibly easy to use and provides high-quality ECG recordings in just 30 seconds. I purchased it to monitor my dog’s heart rhythm at home (under the guidance of his veterinary cardiologist), and it has been an invaluable tool. It has allowed me to capture rhythm strips between appointments and share them with his specialist when needed. The recordings have been clear and consistent, making it much easier to monitor changes over time. The app is simple to use, the device is compact enough to take anywhere, and the battery life has been excellent. While it doesn’t replace professional medical care, it has provided tremendous peace of mind and has been a fantastic complement to my dog’s ongoing cardiac care. Whether you’re using it for yourself or, with your veterinarian’s guidance, to help monitor a pet with a heart condition, I highly recommend it. It’s one of the best health-related purchases I’ve ever made.

I purchased the KardiaMobile 6L Max because it was supposed to include a 1-year KardiaCare membership, and I wanted to trial the device to see if it would be a good fit for use in my clinic and possibly with patients. Unfortunately, the device has not worked as expected. During setup, I was prompted to pay for a subscription even though the first year was supposed to be included. After contacting support, I was told the issue would be corrected and the device should begin working within 24 hours. However, the device still says I need an active subscription and continues prompting me to pay. This has now been going on for about a month. My first support ticket was submitted around April 18, and a second request was made on May 15. I was told the device should work by the end of the day or the following day, but it still does not work as of May 19. Another frustrating part of the process is that when you call and speak with someone, they appear to only be able to create a ticket. The actual support team then contacts you by email, which makes the process slow and difficult when the device still is not working. When support does email, they request additional information that has to be verified before they can continue helping, which adds even more delay. It feels like it takes days just to move the issue forward. I also requested information about the Kardia 12L and provider portal because I was interested in potentially using AliveCor/Kardia products in my clinic. I have now been told twice that someone from sales would contact me, but I still have not heard from anyone. The device itself may be useful if everything is activated correctly, but my experience so far has been very frustrating. At this point, the difficulty getting the included subscription activated, the inability to use the device, and the lack of sales follow-up are making me reconsider whether AliveCor/Kardia is the right solution for my clinic. Overall, I cannot recommend the 6L Max right now unless AliveCor resolves the included membership activation issues and improves support follow-up.

Quick answers: Easy setup? Yes Easy to use immediately? Takes practice Portable? Very Results fast? Yes, about 30 seconds Easy to share with doctor? Yes Would buy again? Yes I bought this at the recommendation of my physician, and it has been incredibly helpful for those “is this serious or is my body just doing jazz hands?” moments. It gives me a way to record what’s happening and share it with my doctor instead of guessing or running in every time I feel something weird. Setup was easy, the packaging was nice, and the device itself is small and convenient to keep nearby. The one thing I’d tell everyone: practice before you actually need it. The 6L reading can be a little tricky at first because you have to get the sensors positioned correctly on your ankle/knee area and hold still for the full recording. The first few times felt awkward, but it gets much easier once you know where to place everything. For me, the value is excellent compared with the cost and stress of unnecessary urgent care/ER trips. The app/subscription setup is also useful because recordings can be stored and shared with your doctor. Bottom line: This is a great peace-of-mind tool, especially if your doctor recommends tracking symptoms. Small learning curve, big usefulness.

I have been using the KardiaMobile 6L Max for several months and have been very pleased with it. The device is extremely compact, easy to carry, simple to use, and has worked reliably whenever I have needed it. One of the biggest benefits has been the ability to capture an actual 6-lead ECG during or shortly after symptoms occur. Both my primary care physician and cardiologist appreciate having objective ECG data to review rather than relying solely on a verbal description of symptoms. My only reservation is the subscription model. I would have preferred the standalone 6L option that apparently used to be available, but it was not available when I purchased, so I bought the 6L Max with the included one-year KardiaCare membership. According to Kardia support, the unit I purchased will not function without an active subscription after that period. For my current needs, where I only experience occasional irregular heart rhythms, I am not convinced the ongoing subscription will be justified. That said, I can see how the additional monitoring features and peace of mind provided by the subscription could become more valuable if my health needs become more complex over time. Overall, the hardware itself is excellent. If you are comfortable with the subscription model, it is a very capable and convenient ECG monitor.

Couldn’t have been easier to set up and do an EKG. My first one was upside down. lol The symbol in the middle is not a “V” it’s an “A.” So be sure you have it oriented correctly. After that they give you a free evaluation by a real cardiologist. At least I assume he’s legit and not AI. Had a real name. Got it back within an hour. Impressive! After that you get 4 a year for free and can buy more. Signing up was easy. They do want a credit card which I am not a fan of for auto renewal. They all do it and the shadiest companies like DoorDash give you no notice and just pop! your credit card for the whole year. Maybe Kardia reminds you? Sends an email? Hopefully. Honestly I see so far no reason not to renew. It’s valuable information and feels kind of empowering. I have no idea what I am looking at, but the app’s AI automatically detects 6? conditions and when you submit one to a cardiologist they look at another 20+ things. I am learning though. Been on YouTube watching videos on how to read an EKG. Reading websites. Knowledge is power! We have these amazing smart phones and tablets with access to all the world’s knowledge why shouldn’t we all get smarter? The heart is pretty amazing and you can thank God for that! No way were we ferns that became fish and fish that started walking and billions of years later… nonsense. Equally dumb is we evolved from monkeys. Things don’t go from disorder to order. A junk yard if left alone for 100 years or 100 billion years will never produce a 747. So thank God you’re alive everyday!

I have been diagnosed as having tachycardia after a viral infection. I got this 6L KardiaMobile during prime days and so far it has performed as advertised. I find it easy to use whether for single lead or 6 lead EKG. It takes 30 seconds and results can be downloaded and sent to your doctor. My only complaint is that the app doesn't integrate with Omron blood pressure monitor - I have to manually enter readings. Otherwise the app and unit work well! Glad I got it with my condition!

The product is nice, small compact, and portable. It does not come with a case and requires a membership for the 6 Lead Max. I was looking at the three options for the Kardia and not realize that the 6 Lead needed a membership. I guess I clicked the wrong option. That was my error. As the description did say membership required. I will look forward to trying out the compatibility features and seeing the history. I bought this for personal curiosity and be proactive in my health. Highly recommend getting a case to keep it in. It is really small like a mini granola bar ;)

Produto muito útil na minha atividade médica

I'm sure this is a great product, but be careful: this seller JetSouq sends defective items in opened and resealed boxes and charges 70% of the purchase price which you return the product.

I have now had 2 of these devices as because the first stopped recording i was sent a second, which worked at first, then it also stopped. Despite several emails with the manufacturer I could not get either to work again. The manufacturer doesn't appear able to solve the problem. Then yesterday I took one out just to try again. Guess what? I got 2 readings out of it. That was it. Shows green light so Bluetooth ok, but will not record again. Interestingly an error message came up on phone (Samsung A31) which I've not had before - "low energy device". I presume that means the Kardia is a low energy device? So now, despite needing to measure my AF I have no workable equipment.

Buena opción para un diagnóstico rapido

I got this really as a piece of mind purchase, not only for me but my family And so glad i did. Its very easy to use and to read, its fast and effective and i couldn't be happier with my purchase.
