This is an old email, but...  I now own the alivecor.  It allows you do easily perform a heart ECG by holding your phone.  If you have certain models of iphones you can use the alivecor phone case or for other phone models they have an accessory that lets you connect the alivecor to any smartphone.  

I like it, and I can imagine for patients that have atrial fibrillation it would be invaluable to detect if you are in afib...but what I really would like is continuous ECG, and also if possible blood oxygen.  Preferably one that can be worn on the wrists.  Does anyone know of such a wearable continuous monitoring device?

fyi someone sent me this a while ago.  It looks interesting, however it isn't available and if possible I would like to not put it on my chest.
