MyPreOp, a fast-growing telemedicine platform specializing in virtual pre-surgical assessments, has integrated SmartHeart® Pro across its operations - empowering its team to deliver rapid, high-quality cardiac diagnostics without the delays, overhead, or patient burden of traditional in-clinic EKG testing.
🚀 The Challenge: Cardiac Clearance Bottlenecks in Pre-Op Care
MyPreOp's team identified a critical need: streamline the cardiac screening process for patients preparing for surgery - many of whom face time-sensitive procedures, transportation barriers, or long waits for in-person EKG appointments.
“Getting a 12-lead EKG should never delay surgery,” says Dr. Joshua Lewis, COO and Co-Founder of MyPreOp. “But that’s exactly what was happening for some patients. We needed a faster, more flexible solution - without compromising clinical quality.”
✅ The Solution: SmartHeart® Pro in Action
MyPreOp deployed SmartHeart Pro to its patients, allowing them to capture full 12-lead EKGs in under 30 seconds from any location - including patients’ homes and workplaces.
What made the difference:
- Portability: The compact, wireless design made it easy for deployment to patients’ homes.
- Ease of use: No gels, wires, or complex setup—just strap, power on, and record
- Clinical accuracy: FDA-cleared, hospital-grade EKGs with option for review by SmartHeart’s expert team
- Speed: Preliminary reviews within minutes, full cardiologist reports in ~30 minutes
With seamless cloud integration, EKGs were instantly uploaded to MyPreOp’s system, allowing rapid triage and clearance without backlogs.
❤️ Real-World Impact: Patient Experience & Workflow Gains
Thanks to SmartHeart, MyPreOp has:
- Eliminated delays in pre-op medical clearance for surgery patients

“SmartHeart helped us create a more efficient, patient-friendly workflow. It’s reliable, fast, and easy to deploy nationwide.”
— Dr. Joshua Lewis, COO, MyPreOp
