myMerlinPulse™

About

The myMerlinPulse™ app is designed to provide remote monitoring capability of your Abbott Bluetooth®-enabled implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator (CRT-D) to your healthcare provider. The app uses Bluetooth® wireless technology to transfer your heart rhythm information between the device, the app, and your clinic. The app’s user-friendly interface allows you to: - Check if your heart device is connected and ready for remote monitoring. - View the history of transmissions. - Get information about your cardiac device, including its battery status. - Send manual transmissions to your healthcare provider. - Receive notifications if there has been a significant change in the performance of your implanted device. The app uses an internet connection through a Wi-Fi or cellular network to send information about your implanted heart device to your healthcare provider. Your information is encrypted to ensure the privacy and security of the transmission. The app is intended for use by people who have an Abbott implanted heart device and access to a mobile device. The app will only function once paired with your implanted device. Do not rely on the app during a medical emergency. If you experience a medical emergency, seek medical attention immediately. This app is not currently supported on tablet devices. Please note that this product is intended for use by or under the direction of a physician.
