Cardiologist & Electrophysiologist



Jeff Healey, MD

Dr. Jeff Healey is an internationally recognized cardiologist/electrophysiologist and a leader in advanced diagnostics for arrhythmias. He is a professor of medicine at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.

Dr. Healy is the Director of the Division of Cardiology and Population Health Research Institute Chair in Cardiology. He is also the chair of the Canadian Stroke Prevention and Intervention Network (CSPIN) and was the past chair of the Canadian Atrial Fibrillation Guidelines committee. He is actively involved in research and clinical trials, having published over 280 manuscripts and abstracts. His work as the lead author of the ASSERT trial, published in the New England Journal of Medicine in 2012, demonstrated the increased stroke risk associated with sub-clinical atrial fibrillation detected by pacemakers. He also lead the RELY AF cohort study, a 15,000 patient worldwide registry, published in the Lancet in 2016, that examined the causes, treatment and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Acquire

Three electrodes continuously capture the patients' ECG & acceleration signals.

Analyze

Enables physicians to analyze a patient’s ECG during all activities. Embedded algorithms detect all cardiovascular abnormalities.

Visualize

Full disclosure ECG’s are generated & all data gathered is clearly displayed in the comprehensive patient report.

Transmit

Embedded technology continuously records & transmits to the CCMC for review by certified cardiovascular technologists & cardiologists.

Report

The patients cardiovascular monitoring report can be send in preliminary format to a cardiologist or a physician to be read.


Real-time Cardiac Event Monitoring Process

Wireless Transmission

Transmission occurs automatically without the need for patient intervention.

24/7 Wireless Monitoring

Real-time continuous monitoring provided by the Canadian Cardiac Monitoring Centre.

Regular Daily Routine

Patients can go about their regular daily activities while being monitored 24/7.

Notifications & Alerts

The physician will be contacted if urgent or emergent events arise.

Threatening Arrhythmias

Emergency services will be contacted if a threatening arrhythmia is received.


Patients have access to a 24/7 Hour Helpline to address any technical issues that may arise.
