Continuous 7-day Detection of Arrhythmias in Dialysis Population

• Conditions: Dialysis; Complications; Arrythmia

• Registration Number: NCT04071054
• Lead Sponsor: Medical University of Vienna

Brief Summary

The Carnation Ambulatory Monitor (CAM) is an innovative diagnostic patch device that allows to differentiate the different kinds of arrhythmias more precisely than any other ECG-monitoring device. It attaches on the sternum and can be carried for a week without any breaks. This allows a continuous rhythm monitoring without any gap for 7 days.

This device will be used in dialysis patients to monitor arrhythmias during changes in volume and/or electrolyte balance due to dialysis, in the phases after dialysis as well as before dialysis in the short or long intervals between dialysis sessions.
