Overview
Your doctor should be your first source of information regarding your
health. This manual addresses many of the questions you or your family
may have about your cardiac monitor. If you have questions that are not
covered in this manual or you want more in-depth information about
your cardiac monitor, contact Medtronic (see page 3).
Overview of the Medtronic Reveal LINQ system
Your doctor has recommended a Medtronic Reveal LINQ insertable
cardiac monitor system. The Reveal LINQ system allows your heart's
electrical activity to be continuously monitored while you are away from
your hospital or clinic. The system consists of your inserted cardiac
monitor, the MyCareLink Patient Monitor that you generally keep by
your bedside for automatic daily monitoring, and a handheld device
called the Patient Assistant that you carry with you to easily record
information about any heart-related events you experience. Table 1
provides an overview of the Reveal LINQ system.
