CardioComm Solutions, Inc. confirmed the start of an out-of-office ECG monitoring program using the HeartCheckTM CardiBeat Handheld ECG monitor, the GEMSTM Mobile RPM Smartphone app and the SMART Monitoring ECG triaging service to support prescribed in-home arrhythmia monitoring. The Heart Health Institute, a large arrhythmia practice network located in the Greater Toronto Area (Ontario, Canada), will be recommending the HeartCheckTM CardiBeat to their cardiac patients for up to six months of in-home, arrhythmia self-monitoring use with an emphasis on detecting a recurrence of atrial fibrillation and supraventricular tachycardia. CardioComm's GEMSTM Mobile Smartphone app supports physician and research-based remote patient
monitoring ("RPM") requirements including providing rapid ECG reporting directly to the prescribing physician's electronic medical records as patient triggered ECGs are taken. ECGs recorded by HHI patients using the GEMSTM Mobile RPM Smartphone app and the HeartCheckTM CardiBeat be rapidly triaged by CardioComm's SMART Monitoring ECG service to detect for the presence of any number of arrhythmias. Any submitted ECG recordings that show a presence of a cardiac arrhythmia will be flagged so that HHI patients may be contacted and a follow-up visit scheduled. ECG reports generated through GEMSTM Mobile are eligible for medical service reimbursement in both Canada and the US.
