A Prospective Clinical Study Aimed to Assess the Technical Feasibility of RR2 Wearable Home Care Neuromodulation System
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
RR2 is a medical, home-care, digital therapeutic, wearable device. Its main purpose is to deliver prescheduled, non-invasive, peripheral neuromodulation therapy, in conjunction with standard medical care, to relieve AF symptoms, recurrence and overall burden.
