This study is intended to compare the new Carnation patch monitoring system with the Zio
patch, which represents the current standard for continuous recording of the ECG over
extended periods.

The purpose of this research is to confirm the clinical value of a new P-wave sensitive
recording vector combined with an easy-to-use long-term cardiac rhythm monitoring patch
system, the CarnationTM Ambulatory Monitoring (CAM) System. The P-wave is a critical aspect
of the electrocardiogram and a key finding for proper arrhythmia diagnosis. The CAM system
is optimized for both ease of use and for maximum P-wave clarity for arrhythmia diagnosis.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Syncope of uncertain etiology or

- Pre-syncope of uncertain etiology or

- Palpitations of uncertain etiology or

- Management of known AF/SVT patients

Exclusion Criteria:

- Any dermatitis or infected skin over the sternum (Carnation patch) or left upper
anterior thorax (Zio patch).

- A sternal or thoracic incision that extends under the patch within 3 months from the
date of enrollment
