Our device aims to make it easier for healthcare providers to monitor QT/QTc intervals of their patients. InstaQTc is a handheld device that automatically calculates the user’s QT/QTc interval. Using only three electrodes, two placed on each thumb and the third placed on left hip, we eliminated the need for the patient to remove clothing or body hair and still obtain a clear ECG. This not only reduces the amount of prep time for the test but also respects the patient’s modesty.
