An arrhythmia is irregular heartbeat. In arrhythmia, your heart beats too quickly, too slowly, or with an irregular pattern. Arrhythmia detection allows clinicians to remotely monitor patients who may have, or develop, an arrhythmia. This proprietary software can identify 22 unique arrhythmias, from atrial fibrillation (AFib) to left bundle branch block (LBBB).

“We are pleased to now offer arrhythmia detection as part of our ongoing efforts to improve patient outcomes for those suffering from various heart conditions,” said Peter Van Haur, CEO, VitalConnect. “Continuous, real-time remote monitoring enables next-level care and efficiency in the hospital and in post-discharge settings.”

In addition to offering arrhythmia detection, VitalConnect offers Vista Solution 2.0 which provides clinicians with access to 11 vital sign measurements as monitored by the VitalPatch® biosensor and external third-party devices. Vista Solution 2.0 provides information about patients’ conditions around the clock with clinically proven predictive analytics via the integrated National Early Warning Score (NEWS) standard, said a press release.
