Number of Participants With Clinically Significant Cardiac Arrhythmias Using Continuous Cardiac Monitoring Over a 6-month Period With an Implanted Medtronic Reveal ICM Device

Events defined as clinically significant for the objective include: episodes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) greater than or equal to 130 beats per minute (BPM), episodes of bradycardia indicated by a recorded heart rate less than or equal to 40 BPM, instances of asystole lasting at least three seconds, or any symptomatic event, indicated by patient use of the Reveal ICM Patient Assistant, where review of the stored ECG shows an arrhythmia considered clinically significant in the judgement of the study site cardiologist.

Time frame: 6 months of dialysis data following Reveal ICM implant

Population: 81 subjects were enrolled in the study; however, only 66 subjects were implanted with the device. This accounts for the difference in analyzed numbers.
