What is it indicated for?

The CH 2000 is intended for the measurement of T-wave alternans and recording of electrocardiograms and vector cardiograms at rest and during ECG stress testing. The presence of T-wave alternans in patients with known, suspected or at risk of ventricular tachyarrhythmia predicts increased risk of a cardiac event (ventricular tachyarrhythmia or sudden death).

The CH 2000 should be used only as an adjunct to clinical history and the results of other non-invasive and/or invasive tests.

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