Empowering patients to live well with heart rhythm disorders

There appears to be a significant gap between the type and extent of care that is satisfactory medically, compared to satisfactory to help worried patients live well with and manage their conditions. We have early indications that long-term, wearable, heart rhythm monitoring for these patients would help them make more informed decisions about lifestyle, exercise, and medication, for example.

This research is investigating how wearable monitoring would help patients who have long-term, significant heart conditions manage their own care.
