Worn vertically on the center chest above the sternum, the adhesive increases p-wave signal detection by up to 160%. P-waves, which represent the electrical activity of the heart’s upper chambers, are important markers of atrial health. Subtle changes in their shape or size can be early indicators of atrial disease, making clear signal capture vital for clinical decision-making in arrhythmias and atrial fibrillation risk, and strengthens the reliability of trial data. The design of the adhesive leverages Vivalink’s patented eSkin™ technology for unparalleled user comfort and flexibility. It is the latest member of the family of adhesives that can be attached to Vivalink’s multi-vital ECG patch achieving world-leading patient wearing experience.
Vivalink’s multi-vital ECG patch is a lightweight, wearable cardiac monitor built for continuous ECG monitoring in clinical care, remote patient monitoring and clinical research environments. Reusable and chargeable, the patch streams live ECG and vital signs such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and skin temperature while also storing data locally to prevent gaps in the event of a network disruption. With up to two weeks of use between charges and a comfortable design, the patch allows for long-term monitoring without disrupting patients’ daily activities.
