Assert-IQ ICM

Designed to Outperform, Built to Outlast

Assert-IQ Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) delivers meaningful value through efficient, accurate, and continuous patient monitoring.
It features:

  • Extended battery longevity with full functionality and no compromises.
  • Clinically actionable data with reduced false positives.1-2
  • Clear, crisp EGMs for improved visualization of P-waves.3
  • 1.5 Tesla (T) and 3T MR Conditional.

This next-gen ICM provides you with reliable data to enable better care decisions for your patients.4

Longest Lasting Bluetooth® ICM

Assert-IQ ICM is a Bluetooth®-enabled ICM that provides reliable, long-lasting cardiac monitoring with no compromises in features.

Assert-IQ™ EL+

Longer Term Monitoring; May be Preferred for
AF Management.

≥ 6 years* may be preferred for longer term monitoring, such as those undergoing therapy and at risk of developing further arrhythmias such as AF.

Assert-IQ™ 3+

May be Preferred for Traditional
Cardiac Monitoring.

≥ 3 years* may be preferred for more traditional reasons for monitoring, such as diagnosing syncope, palpitations, or detection of atrial fibrillation (AF) within cryptogenic stroke patients.

The Assert-IQ 3 ICM offers another 3-year battery life option that encapsulates only the essential and most valued ICM features.

Clinically Actionable Data

Designed to provide industry-leading accuracy for arrhythmia detection, Assert-IQ ICM features new algorithm enhancements that have been tested and proved to reduce false detections.1

Enhanced algorithms reduce false detections by 98.7% for AF and Pause while maintaining 97.7% of true EGMs.1

New 5-step AF detection discriminator 
for R-R interval patterns and P-waves in EGMs to verify if an event is true or false.

New IQ Insights

Intelligent diagnostics provide trends and timelines of clinically relevant information to provide a holistic view for patient management and empower data-driven decisions.

Remote Programmability

Assert-IQ ICM offers simple and secure remote programming, allowing you to control any connected device without requiring your patients to physically visit the clinic.*** This can reduce clinic workflow burden and ensure transmitted data is unique to the patient.

All parameters can be remotely programmed by the clinician.^
