Whether you have a prior condition, a family history or simply want to take control of heart related symptoms, the Stethophone - the first and only FDA cleared smartphone stethoscope - is peace of mind in your pocket.
Stethophone is the world’s first FDA cleared application that transforms your smartphone into a high-end medical stethoscope.
Get control and peace of mind, record your heart and use that data when you talk to your doctor
Doctors use stethoscopes every day to listen for structural and rhythmic issues of the heart. Murmurs, arrhythmias, and other unusual heart sounds are indicative of potentially life-threatening disease.
Symptoms often come and go or need observation over longer periods of time before they are taken seriously. There are millions of people in the USA who are at-risk or already have heart disease – many of them are undiagnosed or undertreated.
Get control and peace of mind, record your heart and use that data when you talk to your doctor.
People value dignity and convenience. With Stethophone there is nothing new to attach. Nothing new to charge, nothing new to pair, wear or stick to your body. Just download the software and hold the phone to your chest.
There are 8760 hours in a year, yet patients only spend around 10 hours or 0.001% of their time with healthcare providers. This means that the majority of symptoms occur outside of clinical environments and without empirical evidence to support decision making.
Listening to your own heart is a healthy habit. Producing medical quality visualizations and outputs is empowering.
