Remote Monitoring for Pacemakers, ICDs, CRTs and Loop Recorders.

What is Remote Monitoring? How does it work? What benefit does it provide to the patient? These questions, and more, are answered in this video. Remote monitoring is a service that transmits your device data to your doctor's office from the comforts of your home. Your device might send data if it detects a problem with your implanted system, or when your device delivers therapy such as when an ICD delivers a shock. The data transmission is invisible and seamless, and clinics will typically only contact patients to verify a transmission was received, or when a problem is discovered. ***Please note, I am not a medical professional giving medical advice. Please discuss the benefits of remote monitoring with your health care team to determine if remote monitoring is a good option for you.
