The CORE 500 Digital Stethoscope is the pinnacle of stethoscope technology.
The CORE 500 is the first digital stethoscope with high fidelity audio, a full-color display, and 3-lead ECG capture.
Every stethoscope purchase includes 14 days of Eko+ membership access. A paid Eko+ membership is required to unlock the Eko App’s full suite of features: murmur and AFib detection supported by Eko AI, patient profile creation, PDF report sharing, sound recording, saving, and playback, and more.
Even without a membership, the Eko App includes basic features, such as waveform visualization and single sound recording with real-time playback, to support patient exams. Connect your stethoscope to the Eko App to get started!
The CORE 500 and the Eko AI are cleared for use on pediatric and adult patients, but the device's diaphragm size and electrode spacing make it best suited for use on adults.
The stethoscope is intended for use on human patients, but can be safely used on animals under the use of veterinarian professionals. The ECG has limited functionality on animals as it can be difficult to get a signal through fur. Eko AI is not intended to be used on animals.
*Eko+ membership provides access to Eko AI in the software in countries where Eko Health has regulatory approval and is intended for use by licensed healthcare professionals only.
