The CardioCare measures heart rate variability (HRV) and changes in heart frequency. The system combines elastic electrode material with straps made of a comfortable knit fabric to support the sternum. The system fits snugly to the body and is thus unobtrusive when worn. It uses Bluetooth connectivity to transmit signals to an app, allowing users to manage their health data themselves.
Statement by the Jury
CardioCare not only provides high medical benefit but also places special focus on wearing comfort.
