Background: Adherence to recommended follow-up schedules for remote monitoring (RM) of patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) is inconsistent, which may influence clinical outcomes. Systematic organization through a "third-party" universal monitoring system (UMS) may be beneficial.
Objective: We aimed to evaluate the clinical impact of RM and any incremental benefit of UMS vs conventional RM.

However, a fundamental requirement of RM is continuous connectivity between the patient's implanted device and the CIED manufacturer's central server. This study examined the rate of RM disconnections in CIED recipients and the impact of short message service (SMS) to facilitate reconnections.

Their verification results in a high workload for caregivers. We evaluated the performance of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based ILR-ECG Analyzer™ (ILR-ECG-A).
