This tool is a <\/span><b>wearable device that can be fitted on the pet<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and collects up to three vital signs and four parameters of the pet&#8217;s health such as:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ECG<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Heart rate<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Breath per minute<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Temperature<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Activity<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Position<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bark<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thanks to wireless monitoring, it is possible to compare all the key parameters of a pet at a specific time,<\/span><b> without the need for the client to keep a manual record of the patient&#8217;s activity<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Having this record allows the specialist to get a more accurate overview of the dog&#8217;s condition at any given moment, and to be able to compare it with the ECG results.

These tools can be very useful, especially if\u00a0 you have to hospitalise your patients.

This makes it <\/span><b>possible to detect irregularities<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> even in situations that are usually difficult to monitor, like <\/span><b>during the pet&#8217;s sleep or in situations of intense activity<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When using this type of device, it is also <\/span><b>easier to share the data with a specialist who can read the ECG<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, since all the information will be digitised in the cloud.
