Overview
This webinar will focus on the use of implantable cardiac monitors (ICMs) for the detection of cardiac arrhythmias. We will be sharing our experience of the organisation and coordination of remote monitoring which was a necessity during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, you will hear about the latest developments in ICMs and the first experience with this new technology in clinical practice: e.g. remote programming, Bluetooth communication with the patient’s smartphone and Reveal LINQ Mobile Manager programmer.
