Would be handy to roughly know what's involved so we know if it's worth emailing.

Of course, happy to help. Its a wearable device fitted around the torso. It should be worn between 2-8 hours twice weekly over a 2 week period - x 4 sessions in total. I hope this helps? Tracy

Unfortunately, the ECG monitor is not compatible with pacemakers, ICD's or similar implantable devices. regards, Tracy
