From the author: The Reveal Plus[R] insertable loop recorder (ILR) is an implantable device used to detect cardiac arrhythmias in patients suffering from undiagnosed syncope. It has a high diagnostic yield, is easily inserted, and results in better patient outcomes. As medical-surgical nurses begin to see more patients with ILRs, they need an understanding of device use and care.
