Biotronik's home monitoring offers access to patient data
Biotronik has released an online Quick View report to provide physicians with information on patients using the company's home monitoring technology.

The report provides charts and graphs tracking patient conditions, as well as daily transmissions. Biotronik Home Monitoring includes an antenna that is integrated into a cardiac device, such as a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator, which transmits clinical and device data using the global cellular phone network, according to the Berlin-based manufacturer.

The Quick View report is available with Biotronik cardiac devices, including the Evia pacemakers, the entire Lumax family of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators and cardiac resynchronization therapy devices equipped with home monitoring.
