Zoncare VE3 Handheld Veterinary ECG

The Zoncare VE3 is a handheld, 3-channel veterinary electrocardiograph engineered for multi-species cardiac signal acquisition in clinics, hospitals, and mobile field applications. It combines a 5-inch tilted LCD screen with a grid background with simultaneous 6-lead or 7-lead display, a built-in rechargeable Li-ion battery, and species-specific presets—bringing diagnostic-grade ECG acquisition into a small, thin, pocket-adjacent format suited for house calls, emergency response, and routine small-animal practice.

The VE3 is built around a 32,000 Hz sampling rate and a 0.01–350 Hz ultra-wide frequency response, parameters positioned to capture clinically meaningful cardiac signals in dogs and cats across different body sizes and heart rates. Automatic ECG parameter measurement and abnormal parameter annotation support efficient waveform review, while lead-off detection and indication help confirm signal quality before interpretation.

The system supports auto, manual, and rhythm sampling modes, and includes species-specific reference values and alarm ranges that can be modified per species. On-board storage holds more than 1,500 cases (with some documentation referencing 1,000+), supporting paperless records and electronic medical record retention. Data can be transmitted via wired or wireless network in PDF, ZQECG, PNG, JPG, XML, HL7, DICOM-WAVEFORM, DICOM-IMAGE, DICOM-PDF, and GDT formats. The built-in battery supports continuous printing of at least 500 reports on a full charge, and the system includes 3-channel thermal printing with Z-fold and roll paper support.

Regulatory status: The VE3 is a veterinary electrocardiograph intended for animal use. Zoncare documentation references a Declaration of Conformity with an SRN (CN-MF-000010439) , and a China NMPA registration covers the ZONCARE-V3/V5/V6/V7/V9 ECG family—the VE3 model name is not explicitly listed in that registration entry. No FDA 510(k) clearance specific to the VE3 model name was identified in the public FDA database during preparation of this page. No independent peer-reviewed clinical validation study specific to the VE3 was identified in the public literature during preparation of this page. Availability, labeling, and import requirements vary by market; confirm local veterinary device regulations and registration status before purchase.

Key Features & Benefits

Handheld, Portable Format with 5-Inch Tilted Grid Screen

The VE3 is designed for mobility. Its small and thin body supports single-hand transport between examination rooms, farm calls, and emergency scenes. The 5-inch tilted LCD screen with a grid background presents 6-lead or 7-lead simultaneous display for comprehensive cardiac views, and the tilted angle supports comfortable viewing during scanning. A 9-grid keyboard and shortcut keys are included to support efficient clinical operation.

32,000 Hz Sampling and 0.01–350 Hz Ultra-Wide Bandwidth

The 32,000 Hz sampling rate and 0.01–350 Hz ultra-wide frequency response are positioned to capture the high-frequency components and small-amplitude signals that may be clinically relevant in canine and feline cardiac assessment. The ultra-wide bandwidth supports signal fidelity across different heart rates and body sizes, within the physical limits of the electrodes and the clinician‘s acquisition technique.

Species-Specific Presets and Automatic Annotation

The VE3 includes multi-species presets for cats, puppies, small dogs, medium dogs, large dogs, and equines, with user-defined species supported. Accurate measurement reference values are pre-set for each species and can be modified; heart rate values are also customizable. Automatic ECG parameter measurement and abnormal parameter annotation support efficient review, and bradycardia/tachycardia alarms can be configured with species-specific ranges.

Paperless Records with 1,500+ Case Storage

The VE3 stores more than 1,500 cases on-board (with some documentation referencing 1,000+), supporting paperless records and electronic medical record retention. Lead-off detection and indication help confirm signal quality, and the system supports 3-channel thermal printing on Z-fold or roll paper as well as external printer support. The built-in battery supports at least 500 continuous report prints on a full charge.

Wired and Wireless Connectivity with Multi-Format Export

The VE3 supports wired and wireless network connections for data transmission and ECG workstation integration. Reports can be exported in PDF, ZQECG, PNG, JPG, XML, HL7, DICOM-WAVEFORM, DICOM-IMAGE, DICOM-PDF, and GDT formats, supporting integration with hospital information systems where configured. The system supports 17 languages, and optional lifting trolley and waterproof/pressure-proof suitcase are available for mobile and field use.

Veterinary-Specific Electrodes and Optional Accessories

The VE3 is equipped with veterinary-specific ECG electrodes in alligator clip type, designed for animal patients. Optional accessories include a lifting trolley and a waterproof and pressure-proof suitcase for protected transport and field deployment.
