3. To upload your ECG, you can either take a photo of the ECG directly with the PMcardio camera (Important: you'll need to allow the camera permissions) or you can upload it from your phone's picture gallery:

4. By default, the single-page ECG format is selected initially, but if you have a 2-page or 4-page ECG or if you wish to upload your ECG in two or four parts, simply click on the Change layout button in the PMcardio camera to switch to a 2-page or a 4-page format. PMcardio will remember your last ECG-format selection for the next photo upload.

6. After you click Get resultsPMcardio will digitize and interpret the ECG in a matter of seconds.

7. If PMcardio finds any signs suggestive of STEMI / STEMI equivalent on the ECG, the application will ask you to confirm the patient's clinical presentation before showing you the final diagnostic result and the digitized report with all the details (more information here).

For ECGs where PMcardio doesn't find any signs suggestive of STEMI / STEMI equivalent, it will immediately show you the digitized report with all the details.
