Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

In this study, we will evaluate the diagnostic yield of the new AliveCor device versus a 14 day event monitor with the use of both devices simultaneously. We will also examine by means of a questionnaire the compliance, ease of use and patient satisfaction for each device.

Hypothesis:

1. The AliveCor monitor will be non-inferior to the 14 day event monitor with respect to diagnosis of the arrhythmia responsible for a patient's symptoms.
2. The AliveCor monitor will have better compliance and acceptability compared to the 14 day event monitor, and thus there will be a greater number of days with recordings from the AliveCor monitor.
