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

Thanks, are those with pacemakers excluded ?

TracyAdminPartner in reply to bantam123 years ago

I'll look into this for you and let you know shortly.

TracyAdminPartner in reply to bantam123 years ago

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