LOHMAN TECHNOLOGIES, LLC 790.102.200 AfibAlert / hom ecg+

The hom ecg+ / AfibAlert® is a cardiac event recorder capable of recording and storing approximately thirty 45-second events in solid-state non-volatile memory. The hom ecg+ / AfibAlert® allows patients who have been diagnosed with, or are susceptible to developing atrial fibrillation (AF) to take periodic readings with a computerized rhythm monitor. The system was developed for the patient that is at risk or has been previously diagnosed with AF, has a history of heart bypass, ablation, or other cardiac abnormality, or is on heart (anti-arrhythmic) medication. In these cases, detecting and determining AF early can potentially reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke.The device can record a single channel of ECG data in three ways: (I) via the two thumb electrodes, (2) by applying wrist electrodes or (3) applying two sticky electrodes as instructed by their health care practitioner. In each case, the patient initiates the recording. An individual recording will take ~45 seconds. Immediately following data acquisition, an internal AF algorithm is used to analyze the patient's rhythm.The built-in graphical LCD display indicates the presence or absence of AF. If ECG data is present (whether or not AF is indicated) the device uses an internal cellular module to transfer the ECG data to the cloud to be viewed and/or shared with their physician or health care practitioner using either company developed or third party developed internet based software program(s).
