Study to Determine the Feasibility of Wireless Electrocardiography
The investigators are conducting a prospective, observational study to examine the ECG
waveforms captured by the new medical device as compared to a traditional Holter monitor for
subsequent use in visual diagnoses of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias as well as cardiac
impulse and/or conduction disorders by qualified clinicians.
The hypothesis is that this new medical device prototype is non-inferior to traditional
Holter monitoring for capturing ECG waveforms that can be visually assessed for atrial and
ventricular arrhythmias as well as disorders of cardiac impulse formation and/or conduction.

Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients must be at least 18 years of age
- Patients must have a medical indication to wear a Holter monitor
- Patients must not be pregnant
- Patients must be able to comply with the study procedures
