What EKG Machine is your Favorite?

What is an EKG Machine?

EKG Machines, electrocardiograph machines, are used to monitor cardiac activity. The electro-pads are placed on different parts of the body. Each time the heart beats, it transmits small electrical signals that are absorbed by the pads and show a waveform on the screen. The EKG displays these waveforms which are then analyzed as rhythmic changes in the body. EKG Machines are used in cardiologist offices, hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, and clinics.

Each of our Refurbished EKG Machines goes through an extensive refurbishment process. First, the machine is cleaned and then sent for testing and calibration. Any missing or defective parts are replaced. The machine is then sent to cosmetics for sanding, a fresh coat of paint, and replacement of decals. A final quality control check is issued and sent to shipping. Soma Technology offers a competitive warranty on all of our new and refurbished equipment. Some people choose refurbished equipment because it helps to save hospitals money that they can then allocate to their budgets.
