Zio or Bardy patch

[HowMyHeartSings]

Hi does anyone know where you can get either a Zio or Bardy heart monitoring patch fitted in the UK? I'm based in Yorkshire. Anyone any experience? I wore a halter monitor for three days and it picked nothing up....

HiI went for a BP monitoring at a Nuffield hospital and they mistakenly ordered on of these heart monitor patches. Not sure of the cost bit they do the test.

Some people on the Atrial Fibrillation section of Health Unlocked have invested in a Kardia home ECG device to use at home when they have symptoms, there is now a new model which does a 6 lead ecg & is simple to use. (Not suitable if you have a pacemaker apparently)Many consultants will accept readings sent via a smart phone from these. If you ask your question on the AF section, you may get some advice.

My AF was diagnosed in A&E & is now stable on drug treatment, so I have not felt the need for one.

Even if your problem is not AF, it’s worth asking your question - lots of kind, knowledgeable people on there.
