Device Checks & Monitoring

What is Cardiac Device Monitoring?

Cardiac device monitoring is an essential service for patients with implanted heart devices such as pacemakers, defibrillators (ICDs), or loop recorders. These devices help regulate heart rhythm and prevent life-threatening arrhythmias. Regular monitoring ensures they are functioning properly and optimally supporting your heart’s needs.

Our clinic provides both in-office and remote device monitoring to track performance, battery life, and any abnormal heart rhythms—offering continuous protection and peace of mind.

Why It’s Important

Routine device checks allow our cardiologists to:

  • Verify your device is functioning correctly
  • Ensure appropriate pacing or defibrillation thresholds
  • Monitor for irregular heart rhythms or device alerts
  • Detect battery depletion or lead issues early
  • Adjust programming to match your current heart needs

Timely monitoring helps prevent complications and keeps your device functioning at its best, providing uninterrupted cardiac support.


What to Expect During a Device Check

During an in-office check, a specialized programmer communicates wirelessly with your implanted device. This allows our team to review stored data, assess performance, and make any necessary adjustments.

For remote monitoring, your device securely transmits information from home using a transmitter or mobile app. Our team reviews this data regularly, ensuring your heart rhythm and device function remain stable between visits.
