## Indications for use
The QRS-Card Cardiology Suite 4.0TM Ambulatory ECG Analysis System is intended for general hospital or clinical use by medical professionals whenever it is required to assess a patient's ambulatory ECG data. This product allows a trained physician or health care professional, after having performed a long-term continuous electrocardiograph (ECG) recording on a digital flash memory Holter recorder, to download and analyze the data from the recorder, review it and produce printed reports. This will enable the evaluation of arrhythmias, ischemic attacks, reporting of PQRST intervals, clinical and epidemiological research studies, evaluation of a patients response after resuming occupational or recreational activities (e.g., after M.I. or cardiac surgery, and/or evaluation of patients with pacemakers. The need to record, review, edit and archive these ambulatory ECG data is most commonly encountered in the Cardiology areas of the hospital during cardiac patient assessment. This device is available for sale only upon the order of a physician or other related licensed medical professional, and not intended for any home use applications.
