An innovator for patients in Atrial Fibrillation, Dr. Passman is a highly regarded cardiac electrophysiologist and is an internationally recognized leader in cardiac monitoring and stroke prevention.

Dr. Passman pioneered the use of implantable cardiac monitors to search for atrial fibrillation in stroke patients, a strategy now part of standard practice around the world. His current research focuses on implantable and wearable heart monitors to guide the use of anticoagulants in patients with atrial fibrillation.

In this wide-ranging interview Dr Passman describes some of the benefits for patients of the emergence of consumer-style devices for remote patient monitoring. Dr. Passman also calls for more small-scale research studies, in partnership with the manufacturers of these devices, to evidence their ability to improve patient outcomes and save healthcare costs to encourage reimbursement by Payers.
