The implantable ECG loop recorder was also helpful in pointing towards a diagnosis of epilepsy by the pattern of the signals recorded on it.

Using implantable loop recorders for primary monitoring of patients with unexplained syncope and preserved LV function is more cost effective and diagnostically efficient than conventional testing.

Three weeks ago, Gonzalez implanted the loop recorder device -- which is approximately one-third the size of a AAA battery, making it more than 80 percent smaller than other monitors -- just ...

Implantable loop recorder screening for atrial fibrillation did not significantly reduce the risk for stroke compared with usual care, according to study results published in JAMA Neurology ...

Invasive Tests. The invasive tests that cardiac electrophysiologists use include cardiac catheterization, placement of an implantable loop recorder (ILR, Reveal or Reveal Plus), and ...

The use of an implantable loop recorder is effective at documenting and guiding therapy for neurally mediated syncope, but given the actual probability of this type of syncope, is using the device ...

The implantable loop recorder is a small device implanted beneath the skin above her heart. The procedure was a minimally invasive surgery that took about 15 minutes to install.

Continuous implantable loop recorder monitoring resulted in a threefold increase in atrial fibrillation detection and subsequent anticoagulation initiation, but failed to reduce risk for stroke or ...

Researchers tested two continuous ECG monitoring approaches post-TAVR -- one using skin patches over 14 days, the other implantable loop recorders (ILRs) over 1 year -- in separate studies ...
