Lisa is a 57-year-old IT program manager with \u201casymptomatic\u201d atrial fibrillation (AF). When she was first diagnosed, she spent five days in the hospital receiving treatment to control her condition. It was a harrowing experience for her and her family, especially as she learned about the serious complications associated with AF, like stroke.<\/p>\n
The following week, after doing extensive research about different monitoring devices, she attended a follow up appointment with her cardiologist where discussed with him the AliveCor Mobile ECG as a way for her to keep track of her condition anywhere and at anytime. It was also a great option because of its low cost, accuracy and ease of use. \u201cHome monitoring devices are usually over one thousand dollars, and even if it\u2019s covered by my insurance, my co-pay will be very high. The AliveCor Mobile ECG is far more affordable,\u201d says Lisa.<\/p>\n
For Lisa, convenience is an important factor, \u201cI travel for work, up and down the West Coast and across the country. My AF can be sporadic, and it\u2019s very stressful to feel a little off when I\u2019m away from home, going through airports, or on the plane,\u201d describes Lisa. \u201cThe AliveCor Mobile ECG gives me peace of mind anywhere that I am. My family worries about me schlepping suitcases through the airport. But when this device came along, it gave them peace of mind too.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
