@carculmer I also have a Medtronic loop recorder and also recently had a change to Vector to receive and process the data and actually produce reports that I can see. The new reports are very useful and helpful. For 18 months, I received no info, even though my cardiologist was being paid monthly to review the data from the agents hired by Medtronics.
This old model of milking the patient of his money and not giving the patient any useful information needs to end!
I could see immediately in the new Vector reports that I was in a PVC rhythm about 40% of the time and was a likely cause of my dizziness and loss of consciousness. For the first 18 months, under the original data handler, no mention was made of high PVC burden.

Wow how maddening! So you mean that your doctor that was supposed to be reviewing the reports every month never noticed your rhythm issue and/or never said anything to you? Isn't this mall practice?
