The SJM Confirm™ implantable cardiac monitor (ICM) is a compact device designed to help physicians detect abnormal heart rhythms in patients with unexplained symptoms. It enables the evaluation of heart rhythm signals over a longer period of time compared to standard monitoring tests and it is the smallest ICM available which can be implanted in an outpatient procedure under local anaesthetic.
Patients can remotely send data when they experience symptoms therefore helping to diagnose and document difficult to detect rhythm disorders in patients who experience unexplained symptoms such as syncope, palpitations and shortness of breath. This product was developed in response to physicians need for more info about heart rhythm abnormalities.
