What is a Pediatric Pocket EKG?
The Pediatric Pocket EKG® is a personal wallet-sized medical identification card that provides essential emergency information and cardiac history on one side, and your actual baseline EKG on the other. The primary care physician and cardiologist are all highlighted on the card front.
Why do I Need a Pediatric Pocket EKG®?
