Research

The ECG247 is a result of many years research in medical technology and cardiology. ECG247 has documented usability and diagnostic accuracy.

The Norwegian atrial fibrillation self-screening trial (NORSCREEN)

The NORSCREEN trial will assess whether self-examination with ECG247, detection of previously unknown atrial fibrillation and initiation of preventive treatment can avoid stroke. The study will include 20,000 participants ≥65 years with up to 5 years follow-up. Oslo University Hospital and professor Sigrun Halvorsen are responsible for the study
