I need a home heart rate monitor for a-fib patient?

Posted by admin
M M asked:

My mother is in a-fib and normal heart rate monitors
or blood rate monitors do not give an accurate heart
rate. The EKG machine that her doctor uses is able
to but it costs $12,000. Is there anything out there
under $3000 that would give accurate heart rate readings
for an atrial-fibrilation patient?
