device e-patch Implantation
The ePatch device (Phillips) was used. This device is attached to the sternum, using a specific dressing adapted for the device itself. Manufacturer's recommendations for skin preparation and placement will be followed.
The device will remain in place for 4-5 days, at which time the patient will be readmitted for data extraction and reading.
The team of research nurses will analyze the data through the ePatch platform and later, the electrophysiologists will review the results and make a diagnosis.
