The Reveal LINQ Insertable Heart Monitor is a small device that continuously monitors the heart for a long period, typically 3-4.5 years, to detect abnormal heartbeats and provide personalized information to doctors.
Understanding Atrial Fibrillation and its Risk for Stroke
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a type of abnormal heartbeat that can increase the risk of stroke. AF is hard to detect and may not cause symptoms, but treating it can lower the risk of another stroke. Heart monitoring can help detect AF and provide treatment options.
How the Insertable Heart Monitor Works
The insertable heart monitor is a minimally invasive procedure that takes only a few minutes. It monitors the number of abnormal heartbeats and how long they last, and enables patients to mark their symptoms. The device can be removed when its battery runs out, and the procedure is similar to the one for inserting it.
