Withings has received FDA clearance for medical ‘multiscope’ BeamO

Withings announced that its multi-function medical device BeMo has received approval from the FDA. The BMO contains sensors to perform electrocardiogram, stethoscope and thermometer. The company claims that all three tests can be completed in less than a minute. It is now available for purchase and will retail for $250.

The company unveiled BeamO at CES 2024. It is being offered as a tool for telehealth, with a companion app that can send results to medical professionals. Withings is also offering a cardio check-up service as part of its health subscription, where BMO results can be reviewed remotely by cardiologists who will provide the device owner with a heart health assessment within 24 hours.

Withings is the name behind several intriguing (and sometimes weird) home health and smart tech items, including a smartwatch, an extremely futuristic bathroom scale, and a toilet-mounted computer for urine analysis.
