1 Introduction
Dear Patient:
You have received a device with the additional
Home Monitoring function by BIOTRONIK.
How Home Monitoring works
Your implanted device (1) is equipped with a
special transmitter which sends cardiac
information to your CardioMessenger (2). This
usually happens at night.
The transmission power of your implanted device
is low and does not pose a health risk. However,
the transmission range from your implanted
device is limited, and therefore, the use of a
CardioMessenger is required.
The CardioMessenger collects the information
and transmits it to the BIOTRONIK Service
Center (4) as encoded messages via a mobile
connection (3).
The messages are decoded and can be viewed by
your physician (5) on a protected web site.
Usage of this additional data is specific to the
patient and the implanted device. Your physician
will explain to you how he or she will use the
Home Monitoring function.
