ECG Machines
Merlin Medical offers a range of ECG machines. From desktop and PC based with built in printers, handheld ECGs, accessories, and paper to Holter machines for long term monitoring.
An ECG machine records the heart's electrical activity through electrodes placed on the chest, arms and legs, capturing the P-wave, QRS complex and T-wave that make up each heartbeat. A 12-lead desktop ECG machine uses 10 electrodes to generate 12 views of cardiac activity and remains the standard for resting ECG recording in UK general practice, with most models supporting connectivity to EMIS, SystmOne and Vision. Portable and Holter monitors extend recording over 24 hours or longer, useful for capturing arrhythmias a resting trace can miss, while personal single-lead devices such as the AliveCor KardiaMobile support opportunistic atrial fibrillation screening in line with NICE guidance for patients aged 65 and over. In primary care, ECG recording supports chest pain assessment, palpitation investigation, pre-operative work-up and monitoring for patients on drugs with cardiac effects. Merlin Medical stocks 12-lead desktop machines, portable monitors and personal ECG devices from leading clinical brands, alongside Seca ECG Care Plans covering servicing and calibration to help practices meet CQC requirements, with fast UK delivery across the range.
