Eko Health Expands Remote Diagnostic Capabilities with Web-Based Telehealth Platform
Eko Health, a leader in AI-driven early disease detection, continues to redefine how clinicians detect and manage cardiovascular and pulmonary conditions through its suite of FDA-cleared digital stethoscopes, ECG devices, and AI-powered software. With over 650,000 devices deployed globally, Eko’s platform empowers providers to make faster, more accurate diagnoses and optimize treatment — ultimately enhancing patient outcomes. Headquartered in Emeryville, California, the company is advancing care delivery in both in-person and virtual environments.
To better serve enterprise health systems, Eko recently launched a fully web-based version of its diagnostic platform, complete with single sign-on (SSO) functionality for easier integration and access. Eko also joined the American Telemedicine Association (ATA), strengthening its position as a champion for open and interoperable virtual care models.“Eko Telehealth has been a game-changer,” said Katie Thorson, Manager of Virtual Health Operations at Corewell Health. “What began as a necessity has evolved into a cornerstone of our virtual care strategy.”
Eko Telehealth has emerged as a critical tool for remote clinical assessments, particularly in settings where provider access is limited. It enables real-time streaming of:
- Heart and lung sounds
- Phonocardiograms (PCGs)
- ECG waveforms
These features are integrated directly into live virtual workflows and are designed to complement — not replace — existing video platforms. The system supports a wide array of use cases, including hospital-at-home programs, virtual nursing, school health clinics, correctional care, skilled nursing facilities, and remote specialty consults.
Fully interoperable with Eko’s stethoscope portfolio — the largest connected network of its kind — the telehealth platform leverages proprietary audio architecture to deliver crystal-clear auscultation, enabling clinicians to perform remote exams with diagnostic-grade precision.
By eliminating the barrier of inaudibility in virtual visits, Eko is bridging the gap between physical examination and remote care, making high-fidelity listening possible from virtually anywhere.
