The Eka Heart Rate Monitor (EHRM) uses the reflective mode principle for obtaining PPG signals to compute pulse rate

Eka Care has launched a scientific mobile-based feature on the app through which users can track their pulse rate, a basic, yet very important body vital. Tracking the vitality can assist users to understand when they need to seek medical advice. It can also help doctors to understand their patients better and offer better healthcare.

Eka Care has launched the Heart Rate Monitor in collaboration with Father Muller (FM) Medical College and Hospital. This feature is completely free for the user. This device uses Photoplethysmography technology.

The Eka Heart Rate Monitor (EHRM) uses the reflective mode principle for obtaining PPG signals to compute pulse rate. This feature can be accessed through Eka Care’s android mobile application.

To demonstrate the accuracy and reliability of EPRM, Eka Care has built  a diverse validation dataset of PPG comprising 10,000 patients in OPD and ICU settings, in collaboration with the Father Muller (FM) Medical College and Hospital. So far, Eka Care has collected data of  5,700+ patients from 5 different centers of FM Hospital across its rural and urban centers.
