Jane's Journey to Clarity: A Story of Heartfelt Reassurance
Read Jane's story below.
It’s easy, noninvasive—it gave me more peace of mind.
A wife, mother, grandmother, and retired schoolteacher, Jane has always embraced life with zest. Her days filled with love for family, friends and gardening, took an unexpected turn when she began experiencing disturbing heart palpitations. Faced with alarming notifications from an over-the-counter consumer ECG device, and with a family history of heart disease, Jane's worry deepened. Could her life be about to change?
Encouraged by her daughter-in-law, who works at iRhythm, Jane sought a cardiologist's expertise. Her doctor prescribed the Zio® XT service which provides continuous, uninterrupted recording and a comprehensive end-of-wear report, marking Jane’s first step towards unraveling the mystery of her heart’s health.
Embracing the Zio® Experience
Jane was pleasantly surprised by the Zio® XT device's comfort and ease of use. It was so unobtrusive that she often forgot it was there. Yet, when reminded of its presence, she felt a sense of pride, explaining to friends, "This thing here... it's going to help doctors know exactly what they need to know about what's going on with my heart."
Armed with data from the Zio XT service end-of-wear report — no arrhythmias were found while Jane was wearing the Zio XT device — and a subsequent stress test, her doctor gave her the news she had been hoping for: her heart was fine. The relief and peace of mind she felt were immediate and profound. Jane was ready to return to enjoying her life, her heart worries alleviated.
Back to Herself, With Confidence
This journey has reshaped Jane's approach to health monitoring. The confidence instilled by her cardiologist and the Zio XT service has given her more peace of mind to focus her time on everything she loves: family, friends, gardening and a zest for life. This knowledge has been empowering and liberating, and Jane takes comfort knowing that she and her doctor can easily get answers if she ever needs to be monitored again.
Reflecting on the Journey
Jane chose to share her story with others who might be facing similar uncertainties. "I would recommend this tool to everyone, no matter what their age. It’s easy, noninvasive—it gave me more peace of mind," Jane shared. Her journey from fear to reassurance, from uncertainty to clarity, highlights the critical role of innovative healthcare solutions like the Zio XT service.
