Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - Implantable Loop Recorder

Active comparator: Interventional Arm - Using an Implantable Loop Recorder fo continuous rhythm monitoring and home follow-up. This will be combined with standard care procedure, which will include annual ECG, 24 hour Holter/5 day ECG monitoring and further investigation dependent on symptom status.

No intervention: Standard of Care Arm - The standard of care with annual ECG, 24 hour Holter/5 day ECG monitoring and further investigation dependent on symptom status.


Treatment: Devices: Implantable Loop Recorder
An implantable loop recorder (ILR), also known as an insertable cardiac monitor, is a small device (smaller than a AAA battery) that is inserted under the skin on the front of the chest. The ILR is inserted using local anesthetic as an out-patient procedure and lasts approximately 30 minutes. The ILR captures a continuous ECG of your heart activity, which allows doctors to detect any abnormal heart rhythms at any point. If you have the ILR, you will have the device for 3 years, after which it will be removed under local anesthetic during an out-patient procedure, again lasting approximately 30 minutes. The ILR device is completely safe and shouldn't affect your day to day living.
