Key things to remember
▪ Do not dispose of the SEEQ MCT System box or the postal
return label. They will be used to ship the components back to
Medtronic at the end of monitoring.
▪ Wear the Wearable Sensor continuously until you see the
following two symbols ( and ) appear on the Wearable
Sensor display. (Refer to the section “When to remove or
replace the Wearable Sensor” on page 11.)
▪ You can wear the Wearable Sensor while you shower (it is
water resistant), but do NOT submerge the Wearable Sensor in
water (for example, by swimming or sitting in a hot tub). Avoid
excessive rubbing of the Wearable Sensor while showering.
▪ Once applied, do not remove and then reapply or reposition the
Wearable Sensor. If this happens, you may be required to use
another Wearable Sensor (that is, it is meant for one-time use).
▪ Keep the Transmitter close to you at all times (within 30 feet
[9 meters]) and charge it daily (for example, each night while
you sleep).
▪ Whenever you feel symptoms, push the blue Patient Trigger
Button in the middle of the Wearable Sensor device until you
hear a beep.
Using the SEEQ MCT System during the
monitoring period
What to do when you feel cardiac symptoms
Whenever you feel cardiac symptoms, push the blue Patient Trigger
Button in the middle of the Wearable Sensor device until you hear a
beep.
This will direct the Wearable Sensor to transmit a record of your heart
rhythm (that is, ECG) to your Transmitter, which will then
automatically transmit the information to the Medtronic Monitoring
Center for review by Medtronic technicians.
This information will then be provided to your physician.
• If you see a single blinking green
light within the circle symbol, it
means the Wearable Sensor is
working properly.
• If you DO NOT see this light within
15 minutes of application, please
call Medtronic Customer Support
