The Rhythm Express RX-1 mini will be worn by adult patients for a period of time as prescribed by a physician, typically 1 day to 4 weeks, and will continuously monitor ECG. RX-1 mini will function in one of three modes: a) Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT), b) Event Recorder (ER), and Wireless Holter (WH). The device will connect to standard ECG electrodes to capture 2 channel ECGs. An embedded algorithm processes the acquired ECG to detect arrhythmias, compress the ECG, and remove most in-band noise without distorting ECG morphology. RX-1 mini incorporates a cellular modem to communicate with the RS-1 Web Service. The RX-1 mini device uses an embedded cellular modem on the cellular network.The RX-1 mini device is not a life-supporting or life-sustaining system. Clinical judgment and experience are used to check and interpret the data.
A body-worn, battery-powered component of an electrocardiography telemetric monitoring system designed to continuously measure and wirelessly transmit real-time electrocardiographic (ECG) signals [and sometimes additional parameters such as heart rate, skin temperature, or haemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2)] to a remote receiver (e.g., central station server); it may in addition record/analyse data during a period of time for later retrieval (Holter reporting). The transmitter typically includes an antenna and attached sensors (e.g., leads and electrodes) that are connected to the patient, and may be provided with dedicated data management/communication software. This is a reusable device.
