Publication number: 20260083379Abstract: An electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement apparatus is disclosed for obtaining and displaying multiple ECG leads using a minimum set of electrodes and a smart device. The apparatus comprises: multiple electrodes, a constant voltage generator, and at least three amplifiers including at least one single-ended amplifier. In a first embodiment, three electrodes contact three limbs and one electrode contacts a precordial portion of a user. The apparatus obtains two limb-leads and one precordial-lead. A connected smartphone is enabled to generate four additional limb-leads from the two acquired limb-leads, and subsequently display six limb-leads along with the one precordial lead on the smartphone's screen. In a second embodiment, two electrodes contact two limbs and two electrodes contact two precordial portions of the user. The apparatus obtains one limb lead and two precordial leads. The apparatus provides a method for comprehensive ECG measurement using a minimal set of electrodes and leveraging a smart device.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 26, 2025Publication date: March 26, 2026Applicant: HEXACHECK INC.Inventor: In-Duk HWANG

Publication number: 20250331759Abstract: An electrocardiogram (ECG) measurement method with reduced power consumption for displaying a six-lead ECG waveform using a portable apparatus and a smartphone is disclosed. The apparatus includes three electrodes configured to contact both hands and a left leg of a user, two contact detectors configured to detect a contact status of the user, and a microcontroller. Upon detecting simultaneous contact on all three electrodes, the microcontroller transitions from a low-power mode to an active mode, activating two amplifiers and a constant voltage generator to acquire two ECG signals. The two ECG signals are converted into two digital lead signals and wirelessly transmitted to the smartphone. The smartphone generates four additional derived lead signals and displays a six-lead ECG waveform based on the two received signals.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2025Publication date: October 30, 2025Applicant: HEXACHECK INC.Inventor: In-Duk HWANG
