Long-Term ECG Monitoring
ECG247 – Continuous ECG Monitoring Made Simple
ECG247 is a Norwegian-developed solution for long-term ECG monitoring, combining an MDR-certified wearable ECG sensor, mobile app and secure clinical web portal.
Designed to support the assessment of intermittent heart rhythm disturbances, including atrial fibrillation, in clinical and home-based monitoring pathways.
Why Long-Term ECG Monitoring Matters
Heart rhythm disturbances may occur intermittently and remain undetected during a standard ECG or short monitoring period. Longer-term ECG recording can help healthcare professionals investigate symptoms such as palpitations and dizziness, as well as suspected atrial fibrillation.
ECG247 supports continuous ECG recording during everyday activities, including at home, with recorded data available for subsequent clinical review.
Clinical Challenges
Challenges in Detecting Intermittent Arrhythmias
Heart rhythm disturbances may be difficult to capture when symptoms occur unpredictably or outside a clinical appointment. Effective assessment often requires a monitoring approach that reflects the patient’s everyday life.
Intermittent Symptoms
Palpitations, dizziness or irregular heartbeats may occur sporadically and remain undetected during a short ECG recording.
Asymptomatic Episodes
Some arrhythmias, including atrial fibrillation, may occur without noticeable symptoms, making symptom-based assessment alone insufficient.
Monitoring Outside the Clinic
Relevant rhythm disturbances may occur during normal daily activities or at night, when patients are away from healthcare facilities.
Clinical Review of ECG Data
Longer recordings can generate substantial ECG data, requiring structured analysis and review by qualified healthcare professionals.

CLINICAL APPLICATIONS
Clinical Applications and Monitoring Workflows
ECG247 supports continuous, longer-term ECG monitoring across a range of clinical applications. From investigating intermittent symptoms and suspected arrhythmias to home-based monitoring and clinical follow-up, the system provides recorded ECG data and automated analysis to support clinical assessment by qualified healthcare professionals.
Arrhythmia Detection and Assessment
Continuous ECG monitoring can support the identification and assessment of rhythm disturbances, including atrial fibrillation, bradycardia, tachycardia and premature ventricular contractions (PVCs).
Intermittent Symptoms and Palpitations
Longer-term recording can help capture ECG information during intermittent symptoms, including palpitations and dizziness. Patient-marked events can provide additional context for clinical review.
Home-Based and Ambulatory ECG Monitoring
The wearable sensor and mobile app support ECG recording during everyday activities, enabling patients to complete longer monitoring periods outside the hospital.
Clinical Follow-Up and Remote Assessment
Secure access to ECG recordings, automated analysis and downloadable reports can support clinical review and follow-up across hospital, outpatient and remote care workflows.
PATIENT-CENTRED ECG MONITORING
ECG Monitoring Designed Around the Patient
From a clinical invitation to ECG recording at home.
Healthcare professionals can initiate an ECG examination through the ECG247 Clinical Portal, with patients guided through the available digital invitation and setup process.
The ECG247 equipment can be delivered to the patient’s home, where the patient can use the invitation to activate the examination in the ECG247 mobile app, assemble the sensor and electrode patch, and begin ECG recording without attending a hospital for setup.
With no external ECG wires or separate recording unit to carry, patients can continue many of their normal daily activities during the monitoring period, subject to the instructions provided for sensor use.
For healthcare organisations, this approach offers opportunities to organise patient-centred ECG monitoring beyond traditional hospital-based appointments, while retaining access to recorded ECG data for clinical assessment.
AUTOMATED ECG ANALYSIS
From ECG Recording to Clinical Insight
Automated ECG analysis supporting clinical review and informed decision-making.
Continuous ECG recording provides valuable data. ECG247 helps healthcare professionals identify, organise and review relevant findings within those recordings.
The ECG247 system combines automated rhythm analysis with access to recorded ECG signals in the ECG247 Clinical Portal. Potentially relevant rhythm disturbances are identified and organised to support a structured clinical review.
ECG247 supports the review of recorded ECG data as part of clinical assessment and follow-up.
Automated Rhythm Analysis
Automated analysis helps identify potential rhythm disturbances within longer ECG recordings for further clinical assessment.
Structured ECG Review
Categorised events and accessible ECG recordings help healthcare professionals examine relevant findings and assess recorded heart rhythms.
Clinical Reporting
Healthcare professionals can review ECG findings and generate reports to support clinical documentation and follow-up.
Automated ECG analysis supports clinical assessment. Interpretation of findings and clinical decisions remain the responsibility of qualified healthcare professionals.
CLINICAL EVIDENCE
NORSCREEN
Large-scale, home-based ECG screening with ECG247.
The Norwegian NORSCREEN randomised clinical trial evaluated a fully digital approach to atrial fibrillation screening among adults aged 65 years and older with additional stroke risk factors.
Using the ECG247 Smart Heart Sensor, participants assigned to screening could complete continuous ECG monitoring at home, with equipment delivered by post and applied by the participants themselves.
Published results demonstrate the feasibility of large-scale, home-based ECG screening, the detection of previously undiagnosed atrial fibrillation and high initiation of anticoagulation among participants with screen-detected AF.
