ATRIAL FIBRILLATION, Syncope
Conditions
Brief summary
The BioMonitor is an implantable cardiac monitor used to automatically detect and record episodes of arrhythmia in patients with bradycardia, tachycardia, asystole and atrial fibrillation. The study will be conducted to support regulatory approvals outside of Europe. This BioMonitor Master study is designed to investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of the BioMonitor.
