EASY ROCT MONITORING STEPS
1
Your healthcare provider will supply you the ROCT (we pronounce it “rocket”) during an
office visit or we will send it to your home for easy self-application.
Either way, call Intelli-Heart to get started at 877-898-8680.
2
Simply wear the ROCT and it will continuously record and send in all your ECG data to Intelli-Heart for ongoing analysis.
If you feel a cardiac related symptom, you may press the button at the top of the monitor to FLAG the ECG we are receiving.
After pressing the button, log what you were feeling at the time of THE symptom with TWO easy options:
(1) Call Intelli-Heart 24/7 and utilize our concierge services to quickly report, OR (2) use the patient event log on this site.
If you do not press the button, we will still receive all your ECG data for complete review.

WE will go over easy user TIPS during our concierge set-up call and we are available 24/7 throughout your monitoring.
ROCT HAS BUILT-IN CELL, allowing continuous transmitting to our receiving center without any user interaction or connectivity maintenance.
for shorter periods of prescribed monitoring, you only need to wear the monitor, no battery or electrode sticker changes are needed.
For monitoring up to 30 days, you may simply need to : (1) Switch batteries as needed, and (2) change out electrode stickers as needed.

At the end of your test, our concierge technician will contact you to conclude.
Remove and place the ROCT and its ancillary supplies, including the charger, in the original box.
slide the box into the provided prepaid postage return packaging. Drop the package in a USPS mailbox.
Your provider will receive the detailed report.
*Important notice: ROCT Monitoring (mobile cardiac telemetry / mobile cardiac telemetry) is approved for the long-term monitoring of arrhythmia events in non-critical care patients and the roct is not intended for monitoring patients with life-threatening arrhythmias. in general, the use of cardiac outpatient telemetry may not meet the definition of medical necessity for certain indications including, but not limited to, ongoing management after diagnosis, screening, or monitoring patients with life-threatening arrhythmias. it is important to take note that although the roct does transmit continuously multi-lead ecg to the monitored telemetry center, it depends on phone/cellular coverage to transmit. Thus, unless patient is in a controlled enviroment with full cellular coverage during their monitoring period, in the event there is low or no cellular coverage, ecg transmissions may be delayed until coverage resumes. therefore, roct monitoring shall not be used for high risk patients, such as patients that should be monitored in an icu setting. for patients who have no cellular coverage, the device can be retrieved and downloaded manually so that all ecg findings will be reported to the provider in an end of study.
roct monitoring is not an emergency response system. If you experience a symptom that you feel is a medical emergency, call 911 for medical assistance.
