WITHINGS ANNOUNCES EUROPEAN AVAILABILITY OF MOVE ECG, THE WORLD’SFIRST ANALOG WATCH WITH THE ABILITY TO RECORD A MEDICAL GRADEELECTROCARDIOGRAM
Move ECG allows anyone to easily monitor their cardiovascular health and prevent heart conditions
through a sleek analog watch with a one-year battery life

September 3, 2019 – Issy-les-Moulineaux, France, – Withings, pioneer of the connected healthmovement and analog connected watches, today announced that Move ECG, the world’s first analog
watch to record an electrocardiogram (ECG) on-demand, is now available in Europe, following the ECG
monitor having received CE marking for medical devices. Move ECG comes with a state-of-the-art ECG
feature that allows people to easily and affordably monitor their cardiovascular health to detect atrial
fibrillation (AFib), a major heart disease, at any time. Move ECG is available today at the price of€129.95/£129.95 at withings.com and main retail partners, and works both on iOS and Android.
On-Demand ECG on the WristWithings is committed to creating beautifully designed products people can easily incorporate into their
daily lives to monitor health and wellness goals. Move ECG embodies this mission by combining medical
grade heart monitoring technology with a stylish analog watch design and superior battery life of up toone year.
Move ECG includes three electrodes with two discreetly integrated inside the main body of the watch,and the third electrode in the stainless steel bezel of the watch. When users experience symptoms such as
palpitation, they simply need to push the side button and touch both sides of the bezel to start recording
an electrocardiogram anytime, anywhere, similar to a single lead ECG. After 30 seconds of measurement,Move ECG vibrates to notify users that the reading is complete. The electrical signal is then analyzed via
a proprietary algorithm that has been developed with cardiologists and trained using thousands of ECG
signals, so that it can detect irregular heart rhythm.
The watch syncs automatically with the accompanying Health Mate app, which instantaneously classifies
the user’s heart rhythm as Afib or normal sinus rhythm. During the measurement, the user can see its live
electrocardiogram displayed on the app, but can also record an ECG without its smartphone andsynchronize it later to know its classification. A history of all recordings, their associated classifications
and any noted comments or symptoms are stored in the app. Data collected can easily be shared throughan automatically generated PDF to a doctor or healthcare professional that can help assist with early
diagnosis and prevention.
Cardiovascular Early Warning System
AFib is the main form of irregular heart rhythm and is responsible for almost a third of the strokes indeveloped countries. Additionally, 1 in 4 middle-aged adults in Europe and the U.S. will develop AFib in
their lifetime. However, the condition is often underdiagnosed as it can be intermittant so it’s easily
missed if it’s not occurring during infrequent doctors’ visit.1“At Withings, we are committed to going beyond just tracking steps. We are on a mission to create
elegant devices that not only inform people on their overall health and wellness, but also have thecapabilities to identify and prevent serious issues,” said Eric Carreel, President of Withings. “Move ECG
is the newest device in our product range to accomplish this. It offers ECG tracking capabilities people
typically find in a hospital in a stylish tracker that can be worn easily every day. Now people can take areading anytime, from their wrist.”
