CardioNet, Inc. provides ambulatory, continuous, real-time outpatient management solutions for monitoring relevant and timely clinical information regarding an individual's health in the United States. It offers Mobile Cardiac Outpatient Telemetry (MCOT) device, which incorporates a patient-worn sensor attached to electrodes that capture two-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) data and communicates wirelessly with a compact monitor that analyzes incoming information by applying proprietary algorithms designed to detect arrhythmias and eliminate data noise. Its MCOT device automatically transmits the ECG data to the CardioNet Monitoring Center, when the monitor detects an arrhythmic event. The company also offers Holter monitoring services that store an image of the electrical impulses of every heartbeat or irregularity in either digital format on an internal compact flashcard or in analog format on a standard cassette tape located inside the monitor; and event monitoring services to record and store approximately 540 seconds of ECG signal, as well as pacemaker monitoring services. It markets its arrhythmia monitoring solutions, including the MCOT, primarily to cardiologists and electrophysiologists. The company was incorporated in 1994 and is headquartered in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania.
