With MCOT(TM), we provide electrocardiogram and trended heart rate data to physicians in order for them to make clinically relevant decisions.

This newly issued patent reinforces CardioNet's position as the pioneer and technology leader in mobile cardiac outpatient telemetry."

The issued patent abstract states: Systems and techniques for managing biological signals. In one implementation, a method includes receiving a cardiac biological signal that includes information describing events, determining a merit of each event based on one or more of a severity of a cardiac condition associated with the event and a quality of the event, and handling a subset of the events that meet a merit criterion. The subset can be handled for medical purposes.
