Event Recorder

Vitaphone Event Recording

A cardiac event monitor is a device used to monitor patients with transient cardiac symptoms.

Automatic ECG Event monitors such as the Novacor R.Test Evolution recorder has the ability to monitor the patients ECG and make recordings of abnormal events without requiring patient intervention. Manual ECG event recorders require patient to be symptomatic and to activate the device to cause a recording to be made, this makes these devices useless whilst, for example, the patient is sleeping.

The Transtelephonic Cardiac Event Monitor contacts ECG technicians, via telephone, on a regular basis transmitting ECG rhythms for ongoing monitoring. The Transtelephonic Cardiac Event Monitor can normally store approximately 5 “cardiac events” usually lasting 30-60 seconds in duration.
