QOCA Wireless Digital Stethoscope
User Manual
ModelQ-steth-w1
Please read this user manual before use.
Version: 3A
Indication for Use:
QOCA Wireless Digital Stethoscope picks up the sounds from the heart, lungs,
anterior/posterior chest, abdomen from a patient’s body. And when user puts
QOCA Wireless Digital Stethoscope on the patient’s heart, it could detect ECG
signal at the same time. ECGHRSound data will be transferred to a smartphone
via Bluetooth and displayed on the smartphone screen.
QOCA Wireless Digital Stethoscope is intended for trained medical personal
use.
Function Introduction:
Stethoscope:
With embedded microphone, it could pick up the sound of adult’s heart lung
blood vessel. With sound signal amplifying and filtering, user can hear the
sound through earphones or on smartphone via Bluetooth transmission.
Single lead ECG:
Through two metal electrodes on the button of QOCA Wireless Digital
Stethoscope, it could detect the ECG signal and heart rate of adult. And those
data will be transferred to a smartphone via Bluetooth for further display and
storage.
Product Introduction:
QOCA Wireless Digital Stethoscope is simple use, which can be used as a stand-
alone device with headphones. The heart rate and measurement results will be
displayed on the screen.
In addition, you can install a software-specific APP on your mobile device to
receive auscultation sounds, ECG signals, and heartbeats through Bluetooth,
display, store, record, and play, and manage data (auscultation sounds, ECG,
and heartbeats). Built-in lithium battery, it can be used continuously for 3
hours when fully charged.
It is intended for trained medical personal use with patient not in critical
conditions.
