Conditions
Brief summary
Evaluate data accuracy of cardiac acoustic biomarkers (CABs) recorded by the Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD) as compared to the AUDICOR AM acoustic cardiography recorder.
Detailed description
Single arm, prospective, non significant risk device study to evaluate data accuracy of cardiac acoustic biomarkers (CABs) recorded by the Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator (WCD) compared with the CABs data simultaneously recorded by an acoustic cardiography recorder, the AUDICOR AM device.
Interventions
Use of the Wearable Cardioverter Defibrillator and AUDICOR AM to evaluate accuracy of cardiac acoustic biomarker recordings.
