The electrocardiograph is intended to be used only in hospitals or healthcare facilities by doctors and trained healthcare professionals. The cardiogram recorded by the 3-Channel Electrocardiograph can help users to analyze and diagnose heart disease. However, the ECG with measurements and interpretive statements is offered to clinicians on an advisory basis only.
