Accounting for almost one in every four deaths, and affecting more men than women. 
The Mayo Clinic explains, that the most common cause of cardiac arrest is an arrhythmia called ventricular fibrillation. 
Ventricular fibrillation is characterized by rapid erradic electrical impulses causing the ventricles to quiver uselessly instead of pumping blood.
As a critical care nurse for more than 21 years, I have witnessed the devastating effects of heart disease and cardiac arrhythmias.
Other cardiac arrhythmias are also detrimental without early detection or treatment. Ventricular tachycardia, Supra-ventricular tachycardia, third degree heart block, and bradycardia  are some examples of cardiac arrhythmias. When early detection tools are available, the chances for survival increases]]> 2018-09-25 23:40:22 UTC https://padlet.com/spellicier/47sozh2nvuvy/wish/285810329 Abott's Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) 2017 spellicier https://padlet.com/spellicier/47sozh2nvuvy/wish/285812566 According to sjm.com Abbot's Insertable cardiac monitor is the world's first continuous heart monitor that is compatible with smartphones.

With heart disease being the leading cause of death in the U.S. is imperative that the patients experiencing cardiac symptoms and/or arrhythmias have the ability to share crucial information with their health care providers, this will help prevent and treat heart conditions that can lead to sudden cardiac death. 
This current innovation will provide access to healthcare providers to information with a touch of a button in a smartphone. Early detection and intervention will be a key factor in saving lives.]]> 2018-09-26 00:53:28 UTC https://padlet.com/spellicier/47sozh2nvuvy/wish/285820930 Teams: Strengths spellicier https://padlet.com/spellicier/47sozh2nvuvy/wish/285823419 1.
