What is it indicated for?

1. MCT Mode: Use on adult patients who experience transient or non-transient symptoms that may suggest cardiac arrhythmias. The arrhythmia detector and alarm device monitors an electrocardiogram and is designed to produce a visible or audible signal or alarm when Ventricular Fibrillation/Flutter, Atrial Fibrillation/Flutter, Pause (Asystole), Bradycardia, or Tachycardia occurs. 2.

1. MCT Mode: Use on adult patients who experience transient or non-transient symptoms that may suggest cardiac arrhythmias. The arrhythmia detector and alarm device monitors an electrocardiogram and is designed to produce a visible or audible signal or alarm when Ventricular Fibrillation/Flutter, Atrial Fibrillation/Flutter, Pause (Asystole), Bradycardia, or Tachycardia occurs.

2. Holter Mode: Use on adult patients experiencing palpitations, syncope, pre-Syncope, dizziness, arrhythmia, bradycardia, tachycardia, angina, ischemia and paced ECG.

3. Multi-Lead (Resting EKG) Mode: Use on adult patients for acquiring, storing and viewing/printing of up to twelve (12) leads of patient ECG waveforms through surface electrodes adhered to the patient's body.

Contra-indications for use:

1. Patients with potentially life-threatening arrhythmias who require inpatient monitoring; and patients who the attending physician thinks should be hospitalized.

The device continuously monitors patient's ECG, automatically generates an alarm triggered by an arrhythmia detection algorithm or generates an alarm manually triggered by the patient, and transmits the recorded data transtelephonically to a monitoring center.

The software does not perform diagnosis. The ECG data is provided to the medical practitioner for evaluation and diagnosis.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
