Detailed Description

In addition to information available from cardiac implantable medical devices, health related data available from commercially approved wearables and devices such as Apple watch, blood pressure monitor and scales could be used to improve predictive analytics of impending clinical events. This study is to merge implantable medical device data with wearable data to evaluate the added benefit of extra data.
