Impact of an Intensive Monitoring Strategy in Symptomatic Patients With Suspected Arrhythmia

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Suspected Arrhythmia

In brief

Hypothesis: Patients that were previously discharged from the emergency department with a subsequent non-diagnostic 30 day external patch monitor for suspected arrhythmia will benefit from early Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitoring System placement. Primary Study Objectives: To evaluate the outcome of an intensive monitoring strategy (patients with a negative 30 day SEEQ™ Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT) System result are purposed over for a Reveal LINQ™ Insertable Cardiac Monitoring System) in patients with suspected but no previously documented arrhythmias that result in a clinically actionable event.
