Home Monitoring of Implantable Remote Loop Recorders Expedites Intervention

Vincent Walker and Roger Beadle*

A 70 year old woman had a Reveal LINQ (Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) implantable loop recorder (ILR) implanted to investigate a cardiac cause of syncope.Due to the ability of this device to utilise home monitoring, early detection of a significant bradycardia allowed early intervention with permanent pacing before any further episodes of syncope occurred.This highlights the utility of home monitoring with newer generation ILRs.
