Detect AF Study²

First study to evaluate performance of the Confirm Rx ICM predecessor DM2102 ICM to detect AF published in the Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology in September 2016:

1. The 90-patient study that compared the DM2102 ICM to a Holter monitor found:
   1. DM2102 ICM can accurately detect AF episodes at least two minutes in length
   2. DM2102 ICM had a 94% AF episode sensitivity and a 93.7% Postitive Predictive Value (PPV)                                                                        
2. The positive finding shows value of Abbott technology to detect AF
   

    This device is commercially available for use in select international markets.
