Competitive Advantage in Mobile Cardiac Telemetry

LifeWatch is recognized as the true global leader in providing cardiac monitoring technologies and services. It leads in the development of real-time ECG solutions both in the U.S. and across the globe. Expanding its Mobile Cardiac Telemetry solutions to countries with a rising demand for cost-effective remote ECG monitoring services, LifeWatch continues to demonstrate its leadership on a worldwide scale.

In the U.S., LifeWatch stands out for its abundant resources. While other service companies for Mobile Cardiac Telemetry carefully manage their MCT device inventory, LifeWatch takes a different approach by delivering monitors directly to medical facilities without imposing an aggressive ‘hands-on’ approach, ensuring optimal utilization of available MCT monitors.

LifeWatch ACT Device Technology

LifeWatch was among the pioneers in offering Mobile Cardiac Telemetry monitoring in the U.S. The company’s device is known as Ambulatory Cardiac Telemetry (ACT), designed for the detection, transmission, and analysis of real-time ECG information.
