What is it indicated for?

The monitor one nDx® is intended to measure time domain heart rate variability (HRV) in response to a series of standardized, controlled exercises on the part of the patient. While the monitor one nDx® has been shown to be safe and effective for the measurement of heart rate variability, it is not intended to be used as the basis for a specific clinical diagnosis. The clinical significance of HRV should be determined by the physician.

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