REMOSYNC Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Live Remote Cardiac MonitoringExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients in this arm will receive the Cardiophone device, a live remote cardiac monitoring with transmission of cardiac rhythm (device-triggered: if rhythm abnormalities detected by device algorithm; or patient-triggered by pressing the transmit button because of symptoms) for 15 days.
Group II: Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
Patients in this arm will receive the Mobile Cardiac Telemetry device for 48-hour Holter monitoring as part of usual care. This device combines holter, event monitoring and mobile cardiac telemetry (continuous cardiac monitoring of every single beat) into one unit. The holter functionality will be used for the first 48 hours (usual care). The diagnostic yield from the 48 hour holter monitoring will be compared to the 15-day live monitoring.
