The stethoscope upgrade of the 21st century.

Say goodbye to the 1800s.

Instead of using a hollow tube like with an analog stethoscope, heart and lung sounds are delivered digitally through ear tip speakers. This results in unparalleled audio quality and sound cancellation.

Choose from 3 audio filters.

Toggle between Cardio, Pulmonary, and Wide audio filters that are optimized to pick up heart, lung, and body sounds.

Use with Bluetooth.

Connect to any Bluetooth device, like earbuds or hearing aids, for hands-free listening that simplifies your exam flow.

Go beyond sound alone.  

For the first time ever, measure heart rate, visualize 3-lead ECG, and see detection results — right on a built-in, full-color display.

Save and share patient records.

Pair with the Eko App to save admin time, share data with colleagues, upload to your EMR, revisit past exam results, and monitor progress all while maintaining HIPAA compliance.

Enhance expertise with AI.

Eko’s FDA-cleared AI flags murmurs and other abnormalities in seconds, leading to earlier heart and lung disease detection and better patient care.

Depend on durability.

A battery that lasts up to 60 hours of regular clinical use, plus a water- and shatter-resistant design, powers you through the toughest shifts.

Detection guarantee.

We guarantee you'll detect heart and lung conditions more confidently using Eko. Put it to the test in your practice risk-free and return it if you're not satisfied.

These reviews speak volumes.

“The CORE 500™ is making my job easier with the clarity of the sound it renders. You can finally give an accurate account of what you hear from patients' heartbeat and lungs.”

Marie Claire M.

Physician Associate

“The design is compact and easy to use. As a nurse educator, my students and I can hear the same sounds or interpret a 3-lead ECG in real time!”

William H.

Educator

“I really enjoy the amplification of sound. It's lightweight, with the right length, and just allowed me to find a newly diagnosed murmur in a long-time patient.”

Marc G.

Physician

“This stethoscope is a game changer. It has so many functions, and when you purchase Eko+ you get so many more features that assist you as a medical professional.”

John R.

Nurse

“As an EMT it's difficult to take clear vitals on scene. With this stethoscope, it's simple to hear vitals. The ability to take an ECG helps with completing my assessments before entering the ambulance.”

Willie W.

EMS Provider

“The sound quality is amazing. I work in an insanely busy — and therefore very loud — ER. I love that I can actually hear everything so clearly.”

Alana B.

What are Eko AI and Eko+, and how does the Eko App integrate them into a patient exam?

Eko analysis software, or Eko AI, is FDA-cleared software that includes screening algorithms to assist clinicians in detecting suspected abnormalities.

Access to Eko AI requires Eko+, a paid membership offered as a monthly or annual subscription that unlocks unlimited access to the Eko App’s full feature set.

When the Eko App is paired with a compatible digital stethoscope, Eko AI automatically checks for murmurs and/or AFib. To receive AI results, you must take a recording with the stethoscope or the Eko App. (The CORE 500™ Digital Stethoscope is required for AFib detection.)

The Eko App summarizes any findings, including potential murmurs, AFib, or other abnormalities detected. These findings aren’t a diagnosis, but are intended to aid the clinician in reaching a diagnosis accurately, quickly, and confidently.

Can it be used with Bluetooth-enabled headphones or hearing aids?

When connected through the Eko App, this stethoscope can be used with wireless listening devices such as Bluetooth-enabled hearing aids or headphones.

For the best audio quality, listening through your mobile device’s built-in speaker is not recommended.

Are Eko products HSA/FSA/CME eligible? How do I get reimbursed?

Stethoscopes from Eko may be eligible for HSA, FSA, or CME purchase and/or reimbursement.

Use your benefits card for qualified purchases and save your order confirmation email as a receipt. You can also log in to your Eko profile to access your receipt.

If your card is declined or has an error, you can use a different payment method and contact your system administrator for reimbursement information.

If you have any issues, we recommend contacting your account administrator first. If you need to speak with us, you can contact our support team.

Eko cannot provide tax, compliance, or legal advice regarding HSA/FSA reimbursement.
