The event recorder, called the “Heart Access Plus,” 1is intended to be worn by the patient and to record a short period of electrocardiogram when the patient depresses a button upon sensing symptoms 1indicated to him by his physician. The unit is intended to be used in the patient’s home, place of work, or when traveling. Recordings are then to be transmitted telephonically to a central receiver, where they are printed as received and then can be interpreted by a physician.

The unit also has a voice diary so that the patients can record notes of the circumstances when the event was recorded. The Heart RAccess Plus operates in the so-called “Looping” mode, in which it is always active, and in which it records an interval of one channel of cardiac activity pefore and an interval after the depression of the button; The durations of the intervals are programmable. The intended patient population 1s patients experiencing intermittent and unexpected cardiac events and arrhythmias.

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