Give the Gift of Health: KardiaMobile Card for Peace of Mind
My pick for a great gift for someone who is getting to “that” age, is a KardiaMobile Card. When it comes to gift-giving, this gift might not sparkle but offers something priceless, peace of mind.
About the KardiaMobile Card
The KardiaMobile Card can be a game-changer in detecting and managing medical concerns, potentially saving both health and finances. Recently, I purchased one for a family member concerned about possible atrial fibrillation (afib). There are other devices that can provide this monitoring, but they require the purchase of a watch (e.g. Apple Watch) or a handheld device.
The challenge in diagnosing afib lies in capturing an event while it’s happening. Most in-office tests often involve running on a treadmill or wearing a monitor for weeks, hoping to record an afib episode. Yet, these methods are often cumbersome or fail due to practical limitations, like monitors falling off during daily activities.
The KardiaMobile Card is a monitoring device the size of a credit card. It syncs with your mobile device, delivering medical-grade EKG readings that can be sent to your doctor. Its compact size allows you to carry it discreetly, readily available whenever you suspect an afib event.
How You Can Get It As A Gift
Available online, the KardiaMobile Card typically costs less than $100, making it a valuable investment in one’s health.
Several acquaintances of mine have utilized this device to share results with their doctors. One friend spent six months navigating heart concerns with their physician. However, after acquiring the KardiaMobile Card, they provided an EKG reading to their doctor within weeks.
Admittedly, it may not win the award for the most exciting gift, but for someone with heart fibrillations or similar concerns, its value far exceeds entertainment.
