Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this research study is to learn if a new 7 day patch ECG recording monitor can serve the same purpose as standard monitoring systems. The new 7day patch is significantly smaller and lighter than previous ECG recorders.
Detailed description
The primary purpose of this research is to evaluate ECG signal quality of the BDx 7 day ECG Patch heart monitor after 7 full days of wear, establishing that the device is safe and effective to wear for up to 7 days.
